    I don’t see much point to this, really. Guess it can be nice to correct a wrong address number sent or something, so if looking through a message in the future for an address or phone number, you won’t find the incorrect one during a search, but what do you really need to change a message for 15 minutes later, outside of to be annoying.

      It declutters the chat from corrections

        And with how shitty swipe keyboards, predictive text, and auto correct are, there are a LOT of edits.
