Having some chat history is useful. It's solved some problems (e.g. when was X's birthday?, what was the name of that plumber that someone recommended, etc) but, yes, the vast majority of chat history is not worth keeping.
Pretty much everything I've answered with chat history could be answered by (a) asking again or (b) writing it down properly when finding out the info (such as someone's birthday).
Since I have an iPhone my chat/text history is backed up when I do my weekly sync.
I have a terrible memory so I save stuff I will need immediately, because if I don't, it'll be gone. Most of my Signal chats are setup for 1 week expiry anyway.
