I mean, maybe, but hear me out: what if - crazy idea right here - they finish a fucking project before killing off the old one? Or, even wilder, maybe they improve the existing project? I'm about to blow this ceos mind with these radical ideas.
Maybe not do things like...
Google is like an adhd teen with no adult supervision or medication. It just decides that project x isn't fun anymore and abandons it, but y will totally be better except it never is because y gets abandoned too because ooooh shiny.
I'm not angry at all, noooooo. It's not like most of the projects I used have been axed and replaced (or not) with shittier alternatives. I absolutely love moving friends and family to systems for a few months just to hear about 'why doesn't x work anymore' and 'you said x would be around for a while'. Fuck you, Google.

Trust me, I still haven't gotten over the untimely deaths of Inbox or Play Music, and my comment history will show me raging about Google's inability to have a coherent messaging strategy. (By the way, you forgot the original Google Chat which was killed off before Hangouts!)
It's the same story every time. An app/service with excellent potential, left to stagnate for years, retired. It's at the point I don't bother trying anything new Google puts out because I can't trust that I won't be rugpulled again.
Edit: my mistake, it was called Google Talk, which was renamed to Gmail Chat, which was killed off in favor of Hangouts.
Anybody remember Inbox?
