Do you root or do you go straight to ROMs?

Custom ROM: yes, rooted: no

Still, google shouldn't be blocking a messaging functionality just because something is rooted. That's fucked.

^ pretty much this

Google blocking RCS after their complaints about Apple not supporting their standard is really funny, but why CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 in this case?

The Google Messages app is Google Proprietary as is their server implementation for RCS

Really depends on the banking app. Unfortunately, you have to try it yourself. You can also give it a go in Waydroid.
