Your analogy makes no sense. This isn't being sold, it doesn't hide the users, and the users were never invisible to begin with. Everything else you said makes sense though, and I would say that the larger a group chat is, the more useful (like how public Matrix rooms aren't E2E encrypted since that's useless). And just generally useful considering how often images get shared these days.
