Where are you getting the idea from that "we" are proud of our communication being controlled by a commercial party? I'm pretty sure most people are not proud, but either poorly informed or not willing to make the trade off for more security while losing half their social network.

And yet, every time we have this conversation we get this "who cares about SMS, we have WhatsApp!" comments, like that's some kind of a good thing?

It happens in iMessage and RCS threads as well.
