End to end encryption is not a hard problem from a cryptography perspective. It's a hard problem for key management (eg, how do you handle multiple devices?) and recovery (how do you handle someone losing their phone and wanting to recover their previous messages?). Twitter tried this and half-assed it, and Bluesky apparently want to do a better job.

Not having done something yet doesn't mean you've failed to do it.

releasing, missing a core feature, isn't a great example that you care about that core feature

It's not a core feature for their current user base, apparently. I think they care about it more than their users do. They won't be able to implement it at all if they don't have any users.
