I'm not arguing that it's meant to, I'm arguing that Google's attempts to add features to it to try and compete as a chat operations solution is futile.

Email being on LTS is fine, as I said, it'll never go away. That doesn't mean we have to dress it up in chat bubbles and emoji reactions under the pretense that it's something more than that.
