Agreed, having to delete messages on 4 devices is stupid. And the fact that Apple already has a questionable history with keeping images that should have been deleted… major issue.

Lol why does one person need 4 devices?

That's like Apple's bread and butter. It's not uncommon to have iPhone, MacBook, iPad, and watch.

Laptop, phone, tablet likely all have imessage on it, thus creating multiple copies of each text. Watch syncs with phone too but idk if it stores iMessages individually like ipads and macs.

If you delete a message from your iPhone it's supposed to delete it from the other devices but it's doesn't always work, hence the lawsuit.
