Seriously if there is a plan to deprecate Hangouts, then it should not use back the same brand for GSuite to confuse users.

Do not understand why the need to have separate app for video chat, especially the one consumer facing. WhatsApp, WeChat etc all combine text, voice and video chat in one.

They might deprecate hangouts and replace it with hangouts chat, and you might not really see the difference.

On your second point, I wonder that as well.
