There are several reasons. Google, the owner of the platform is pushing this. Carriers no longer want to support RCS in Samsung Messages because it saves millions of $$$ to not have to support huge servers to run those RCS Messages. They will only have just SSM/MMS fallback. Carriers also want you to use your DATA plan when you don't have access to Wifi to send those hi-res photos and videos. Carriers want you to go to higher data plans at a higher cost for those that are still on limited plans.

Google Messages go through their own servers.
