I'm not a Signal user, however given what is the target audience of Signal, i can totally understand the maintainers not wanting unofficial packages around, even more so if surrounded by a snap environment they have no way to check for security. Now, unleashing lawyers as first move is debatable for sure, and I won't be the one who defends that move, so probably some more insight from Signal should be expected.
