Why would simplex be better in that case?

The lack of PFS and 256bit encryption in Session is a little concerning, and one other advantage of SimpleX is that it has no unique identifiers at all while Session uses random IDs and Signal requires a phone number.

I thought signal doesn't require a phone number anymore ?

It still does, but they did add a username system so you don't need someone's phone number to contact them.
