Is someone else using retention policy and threads or discussions agree with this ? :)

I think it makes sense to have an option where discussion stays, but messages are deleted.
Hello, thanks for the votes ! 😃
Thinking about using threads and discussions, I wonder if we'd not better have a different behaviour for discussions, because :
To sumarize :
First :
Then : 1) Messages inside discussions and threads would better be considered as usual room messages, so that there are individually pruned based on their age. 2) "Do not prune discussion messages" may be renamed, for example "Delete empty discussions" and do :
What's your thoughts ?
Hello, in 5.3 (and I guess in 5.4), theses options still remains the same. Current behavior leads to eather a messages loss or a fail in GDPR/RGPD compliance. What's your thought about alternative proposed implementation ? :)

Hello
Description:
In administration, retention policy, global policy, when "Do not prune discussion messages" or "Do not prune Threads" options are not selected, the entire discussion or thread is deleted if its older message is target by the global pruning. This is the case even if this discussion or thread contains younger messages that should not be targeted.
In reverse situation (with "Do not prune discussion messages" or "Do not prune Threads" options are selected), discussion or thread remains but contains old messages that should have disappeared.
Steps to reproduce:
Expected behavior:
I dunno if it a bug or a choice but this behaviour doesn't seems intuitive to me. ~I think messages of discussions and threads would better be considered as usual room messages (so that there are individually pruned based on their age) && if :~ ~- "Do not prude X" is not selected : X remains even if empty,~ ~- "Do not prude X" is selected : X is destroyed if empty but conserved as long as it contains messages~
Edit 2022-03-08 : see https://github.com/RocketChat/Rocket.Chat/issues/19853#issuecomment-1061871665 for expected behaviour.
Actual behavior:
see "description".
