So considering the limitations, you have to ask: what function does the user desire in the moment?

In the moment, I desire just seeing a friend's timeline while I am chatting with him and being able to go back and forth between the two. Right now I have to switch apps in order to do this. Are you saying that I am in the exception to have this use case or that I am in the exception to find app-switching inconvenient?

You can still use the main Facebook app to message friends. From there, you can view the friend's timeline by clicking the information button in the upper right corner. You don't have to use the stand-alone Messenger app just because it exists.
