Idk but that would be the only way it would be something I would consider. But (un?)fortunately, I live in a country where facebook messenger, not iMessage, is the dominating messaging platform.
In my case, I worked for someone who only communicated via iMessage. When I got hired they said, “Either get an iPhone or figure out some magical way to get iMessage on Android.”
Yea in the UK most people use Whatsapp regardless of their platform so this has no meaning. That has its own issues but you never hear people talking about blue text bubbles.
I’m in the UK too and the gradual shift to WhatsApp has been a relief considering it used to be WhatsApp, Snapchat, messenger, Instagram, iMessage and twitter about ten years ago, not that anyone did all of them.
It’s a shame it’s meta but it’s so nice that it’s not a huge pile of useless features, just a few.

I don’t even understand the purpose. Who the hell cares what colour your texts are?
