You like ease of functionality you would still have that. RCS is a protocol not an app.
Like how email is a protocol. Or hell, Lemmy.
You can use whatever message client you want and that can still be iMessage it's just now it will operate as a protocol rather than just being Apple proprietary stuff. You'll have exactly the same functionality because practically everything that iMessage currently does RCS already has it in it plus some stuff that it doesn't have, typing notifications, read receipts, support for large file sizes, link previewing, automatic iCal (again the protocol not the app) integration, location sharing, even live stream support. You lose nothing by RCS been added to iMessage.
