I agree, closed source means we can't do anything apart from decide whether we believe Meta or not.

But my understanding is that the 'report' is from a user's WhatsApp client—if someone sends you a message that you think is reportable, you can report them to Meta. As part of the report, your WhatsApp client will forward some information to Meta.

Assuming Meta are not actively lying, this would not mean that it's not E2EE.
