Chat heads are a terrible feature, and now that you told me I can turn them off Iām going to go do that immediately.

What's your main issue with them? Aren't they just a superior version of the "reply-in-notification" feature of iOS?
The reply-in-notifications go away after I've replied, they don't hang around and cover a portion of the screen all the time. And if I don't want to read them right away, then I've got this thing hanging around on my screen with a angry red number that I don't want to deal with.
They're intrusive, they're obnoxious, they cause performance hiccups on occasion. They're not a superior version of anything.
