The last thing we need is more barriers to entry. People have hundreds of SMS /MMS contacts they’vebuilt up over decades. You can’t expect people to say “fuck all that” and start over from scratch.
And you also WANT verification unless you want some bot setting up an account with my phone number so they can scam people pretending to be me.
It really sounds like your issue with Signal is it’s not the correct service for your use. It’s like declaring a wrench bad because it’s not good at driving nails.
