Is Signal supposed to be more secure than point to point TLS?

That doesn’t sound correct to me, and makes me wonder what the complaint about email is.

TLS encryption over a relay network seems like state of the art security, and something I’d trust much more than Signal to hide my metadata — which is how you’ll actually get killed in a “life or death” situation.

Email-over-TLS provides encryption to your mail server, not to end-to-end encryption to the recipient of your email. That's what this entire discussion is about (and "encrypted email" in the article refers to PGP encryption, not TLS.)
