user posts inappropriate thing in group chat. group admins cannot delete it for everyone.

New corollary: sometimes new tech gets built because you don't know how to correctly use existing tech.

I agree that moderation tools are important :) one of signal's failings is the lack of moderation tooling. You can have small scale group moderation without having government scale surveillance.

I've known users to type passwords in the username field. you implicitly do NOT know all secrets (e.g., a password is hashed). secrets can also churn, so even if you did your example would require something besides an in-memory array.
