Larger point stands, but:

That’s a bit of a strawman. IPv4 isn’t a text messaging protocol. There’s not a default version of Signal-like functionality on IPv4.
The problem with email is that there •is• a de facto default, and it’s insecure. Thus the change friction.
I mean, this was the case with https, and it took how long for https to become the new de facto default?? And that was (I think) an easier problem.
