Ok, have they decoupled my identity from my phone number yet?

I mean, to donate to them I'd have to use it. I don't need another WhatsApp.

almost, usernames and phone number privacy are in testing now

That’s only phone number privacy from other users. Registration would still require a phone number, which is what GP seems to be unhappy about.

I don't see the point of all that encryption when the ends of a conversation are tied to publicly available info like a phone number.

Do you think $SECRET_POLICE will care that they can't decrypt my messages when they know I have exchanged said messages with a known dissident's phone number?

$SECRET_POLICE doesn't do innocent until proven guilty.

Signal's design for usernames and phone number privacy means they won't know

Also, dissidents aren't the only (and definitely not the primary) intended users for Signal
