The quantum computing hype is really annoying but we don't know the future. One day there might be a breakthrough in noise reduction. I'd rather signal have post-quantum cryptography and not need it than get blindsided if there is suddenly a qc that can break rsa with shor. Not to mention intelligence agencies doing store now/decrypt later stuff.
