Sounds like the amount of information a typical web forum stores about its users private messages.
I am not saying if this is good or bad in general, but just... I could live with it in 2005 when Vbulletin was all the rage, and I can live with it now.
Also, other chat clients like Skype, Paltalk, Yahoo Messenger, Facebook Messenger also store this information---its kind of a requirement to do any kind of search over previous messages, and allow people to find their contacts or talk to random unacquainted individuals.
Maybe this is a big negative for Wire if their PR basically touts "security" and "encryption", when the reality is they want to be secure against middlemen only.
