    I don’t buy the point about metadata when Signal […] may be able to scrape it […]

    I agree that it it within the realm of possibility, but, imo, this is independently verifiable, as the Signal apps are open-source [1][2][3] and offer reproducible builds (except iOS [2.1]) [1.1][3.1]. See this section on Signal’s metadata for some more concrete information [4].
