Really interesting. I've used OTR but didn't realize those goals.

However, I don't quite understand how "anyone can forge messages after the conversation" works. Can you explain any more?

The keys are effectively public once the conversation ends -- they aren't tied to your identity. So those messages could have been forged by anyone, there's no proof they came from you.
