Unfortunately I can’t read the original text myself but the machine translation I looked at used the phrase “5G messages” so I interpreted what the Redditor was doing as providing clarification as to what that is in context (“RCS”). Per the document you pulled up, I can see why it would just be called 5G Messaging or something like that, not technically true, but may as well be true as I didn’t realize the GSMA had also mandated it for what they’re calling their “Universal Profile”.

Exactly.
Given this, I'm amazed it took a roundabout detour into Chinese mobile phone regulations to arrive at the conclusion that apparently GSMA mandated RCS for 5G...
