RCS isn't E2E, and it doesn't minimize metadata.
Moxie Marlinspike has been strongly against federation in Signal because of how it makes avoiding metadata almost impossible.
I'd say there's basically zero chances Signal will add RCS.
E2E is not in the standard, but the Google implementation uses it.

You're right. I've read somewhere that Apple plans to work with GSMA to add encryption to the official RCS standard, so this major issue hopefully gets fixed at some point.
