It matters because when you try to build something new, you choose the path of least resistance. I'm not justifying it, I'm explaining it. Also, guess who doesn't gives shit about E2EE? Average Joes.

I agree with you, but still your idea of garbage is not shared by the general population. Remember that telegram got traction because it falsely claimed that it was secure, or at least more secure than WhatsApp.
