A screenshot can be forged, meanwhile Facebook has reasonable certainty about the authenticity of the message. This third end is within the WhatsApp platform, so we're not really comparing the same thing. It's essentially a forward to the party that supposedly can't see your messages, breaking what people understand by E2E. Today this behavior is triggered when it's reported, tomorrow it'll be when the government, or worse, some AI, flags a user. You share a groupchat with the wrong person, or they have you in their contact list, boom, eavesdropped. But some people will still claim it's only 2 ends just because it's not forwarded 100% of the time. I guess it's matter of semantics.
