I do trust OWS (although I'd like if they made the Signal iOS app build reproducible - there's an issue report about it). But I don't trust the people I'm conversing with, and they need my phone number to reach me on Signal. I guess I could use Google Voice or another service to register an anonymous phone number, but that's not a great UX, especially if I'm recommending the same procedure to the person I'm conversing with. (Oh, and the app doesn't seem to support multiple identities... I really should just look elsewhere, I suppose. It's just that I have a lot more faith in OWS's ability to deliver properly engineered systems than, well, anyone else's.)
