You're an ass as usual.  I move files according to what is needed for 
security (95% of the time: none) and then convenience.

With a Mac the most convenient is Message - as long as the counter party 
is also using a Mac or iOS/iPad device - and that is also secure.

With RCS and proper end-to-end encryption then I'd be able to send such 
to people with Android as well.

In the meantime there are other solutions.
