SMS is completely insecure from its very core. So it really doesn't matter.
Just because someone can break into your house doesn't mean you shouldn't lock the door
In this case, your door has no locks. So you can shut the door and it will latch closed, but there's no lock with which to secure it. So anybody can just walk up and turn the knob and walk right in. It doesn't matter what kind of door you use, because there's physically no capability to lock it.
I agree but if you have a phone you need a SMS app in any case, delivery confirmation, spams and scams.. (Yeah it's not that good...😭)
