Probably worth pointing out that Google Apps at one point was called Google for Family.
Maybe also view this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwqDlvJyGI8 that's Google's apps team telling people as recently as yesterday how to turn your Gmail account into a business account.
Imagine you're a small business owner, and that's your only email... you're just about to lose a hell of a lot of things you may take for granted.
Also... https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/play/86WVa8b_... that's a lot of people complaining about this. That topic grows daily.
Enabling Google Fi on Cloud: Suddenly Project Fi needs a dashboard to track all of the Fi accounts for the organization. It needs mass canceling and modification tools. It needs a dedicated support group separate from the main Fi support. Not to mention possible uptime guarantees that would likely be needed. It balloons the development significantly with no real benefit to the service itself. Also businesses aren't likely to use it.
