Agreed. JMAP and IMAP are likely to co-exist for long time.
Isn't that exactly the complaint? Something like, "Long periods of
co-existence need to have lots of benefits or an existential one, or
else they're not a good idea."
They have slightly different audiences. People who want to do something
like JMAP are already doing something like JMAP. They might or might not
care about IMAP. People who are doing IMAP and not webmail might not
care about JMAP.
It is not yet clear to me that JMAP will replace IMAP. But I don't think
this is a reason not to let JMAP progress.
Best Regards,
Alexey
