Only the messages are encrypted, but there's a ton of metadata that isn't, e.g. who you talk to, when, where you are when you do so, ...

But in the client is the only time their code touches the actual unencrypted message data.
Also a lot of the data you mentioned will also not be available if you don’t use their client, eg: if you use Signal client then Facebook won’t get your location all as that’s not part of regular text message
