If you can do many to many, you can do 1 to 1. That's why I see them as a single thing. Both Signal and WhatsApp do group calls as well as 1 to 1.
Most people don't get the difference between Signal and WhatsApp, but I agree Signal is way way way more trustworthy and security. When I have to run WhatsApp, for work, which is rare, it is in a jail, with as little access as I can give it. Including a fake address book with only who I need for the call in. It's a closed app from a data mining company. It is filth.
