Considering the privacy issues related to Whatsapp handling of personal data (e.g. contact info sent to Meta servers, message metadata collection, etc.), why not using Signal, Matrix, or something alike? Or is it too difficult for them to use something else than Whatsapp?

Not OP but they're likely using Whatsapp already.
I'm a big believer in Signal (I have a monthly contribution set up) but Whatsapp is far more common for most people to use.
I have convinced my older parents and siblings to all use Signal though, so I consider that a win.
