Why no unified telephony app?

Why does everyone split telephony in 3?
this is like having an email app be split into one where you send emails and one where you read them (??????)

I'd rather have all the related functions be in one place, does android just not let you do that or what?

(I'm asking why contacts, phone/dialer, sms are split into 3 different apps)

Generally, it's a good idea to have one tool do one job rather than many (calling, messaging, contact management), and it also keeps things flexible because some users may prefer to use Fossify Phone, but not Fossify Contacts or Messages, and similarly, some may like Fossify Messages, but not the other two.
