Unless I'm missing something, this isn't a messaging standard like RCS or XMPP. This is just a way to do E2EE messaging. Just like Signal and Whatsapp both use the Signal protocol for E2EE messaging but are completely siloed networks, MLS would be much the same.
This will allow interoperability between messengers.
If only there was some extensible protocol for exchanging messages and presence information.
