For some of us (edge cases perhaps) it will.

I use android, as do the majority of my friends/colleagues, but a 
minority use iphone.  I refuse to use Messenger/WhatsApp, they've never 
heard of Signal/Telegram.

The only ways I can send them photos is MMS (which is expensive, so I 
only do it rarely) or email, which some of them don't have on their 
phones ... RCS does add value in that case.
