The fact that nobody on the thread spoke up and said "we shouldn't be talking about this on Signal" worries me greatly.

One possible explanation is that it happens all the time.

I think that's the point.

Signal prevents what should be official government communications from being recorded. If it's recorded it can be investigated.
