Thanks for bringing it to my attention. It really looks like they managed to make an ID less chat as simple as possible. But the undeniable benefit of using one’s phone as ID is that when people switch, their contacts are already there. I think that friction alone will prevent normies from adopting it.
Yeah they’ve tried to make it as similar as whatsapp. But it’s hard convincing your entire family to switch again after signal just because you found a cool new app to switch to, lol

I know, I’m not even going to try. I can already hear the crying and gnashing of teeth.
