iMessage and FaceTime have been E2EE for at least 4-5 years, and Messages in iCloud is too fwiw [1] (as well as other misc services, the list has grown over time). There are other reasonable complaints, not at all least of which is it’s not cross platform and iCloud Backups are not encrypted (reportedly due to government pressure too!). But security/privacy shouldn’t be one, for Apple<>Apple devices anyway (low friction fallback to SMS is its own can of worms in 2020). I don’t know about the others on your list but you got iMessage wrong at least. —— 1: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202303 https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202303
