FWIW, I'd much rather read a journalist's take on what Google is doing with messaging than a Google PR piece from a site which mostly writes PR pieces.[1] But there's probably good cause for multiple threads on the topic to be merged together.
[1]Mostly when a company does exclusive interviews with a site, you should be very skeptical of anything that site says on the matter. Especially if they have a design team making custom animations and such for said exclusive article.

The Ars piece is much better researched than the one written by The Verge. In the latter case they seem to make it like RCS is a wholly Google project when its in fact a GSMA thing with several RCS solution providers.
