I think this is a terminology issue - from what's been said elsewhere the only two differences in incognito mode is that it is E2E and doesn't show messages on your lockscreen.
It's not ephemeral messaging like Snapchat or something, although they are discussing it as a future feature.

When you close incognito mode, your message is gone forever. I assumed that was accurate. Did they misrepresent it somehow?
