The protocol is fully documented. You are free to read it for yourself without resorting to guessing. [1]

Messages are not stored in plaintext. The claim they are stored in plaintext is false.

One can have cogent arguments about one's preference for E2EE or not but the repeated claim here and elsewhere that messages are stored in plaintext is simply hearsay.
