It's a necessary feature if you are using phone numbers. Signal has to tell you if your message has any chance of being received.
I don't want to message someones number, to find out they never got my message and don't have signal a few days later, and I don't want to message them via whatsapp too, giving them a chance to use that when they have signal.
