Everything in that post makes perfect sense; the proof is in knowing how these systems work, Signal's source code, and details from Signal themselves. I can go into more detail on each point when I'm at a computer; my phone kills processes in a few seconds when I try to multitask which makes it nearly impossible to write long posts on mobile if I have to go back and forth to copy and paste. Is there any claim in particular you want details on as to why it's reasonable, or shall I just do the lot? Edit: Ah, OP got it, nevermind!
Also, I should point out that I use Signal pretty much exclusively for messaging. This isn't hate, I'm just aware of its weaknesses.
