Well, that's pretty troubling considering https://shot.3e.org/ss-20220910_115329.png

Isn't App Store review supposed to at least catch things like that?

It's a boilerplate warning that applies to the maximum possible amount of data-collection that could be happening. The app says it doesn't collect anything, and its source on GitHub supports that claim... but a SMS app theoretically could and so Apple warns you of the worst case.

That's the default. There is nothing lower than that AFAIK.
