> Chats in organizations are specifically for

This varies immensely per organisation so it's always kind of dangerous to generalise like this. For example: The use-case you quote does not align with my experience of (bigcorp) chats at all.

So your bigcorp does not require any chatlogs or did they phase out email entirely for chat? Or both?
Logs for regular chat are removed after a very limited amount of time.
So you do need logs, just not forever.
I think either you misunderstood the scope of what I meant ("I need to see what I just wrote") or I misunderstood the scope of what you meant ("I need to see what I wrote last month") when talking about logging. I should have asked for a more specific definition.
