I don't claim to be an expert, nor to be able to speak credibly on the interactions of the millions of people in government.

I just remember hearing an anecdote from a friend with ties to Signal that some part of the government wanted to recommend it and another part slapped their hand because they didn't want to encourage people to use technology that law enforcement can't breach.

Even though I just use it for casual conversations with friends, that gave me some extra confidence in using it.
