For a company of Apple's size, it would be fairly trivial to roll out support for RCS, which would give Apple users an easy way to send encrypted messages to non-Apple users. I wonder if they'd make the messages blue or green.
Right now we're in a weird spot where sending a text from android -> Android is usually encrypted (via RCS), and Apple -> Apple is encrypted, but between the platforms they're not.
I assume Google and its users would love if Apple opted to support RCS, and I assume Google would also love if Apple built iMessage for Android. Apple's chosen to do neither, despite the fact it would give its users a richer messaging experience and a way to encrypt more of their communications.
It's their choice, but it boggles my mind that people defend it.
