It is likely the case that rhollerith’s moral position contains at least some element of signalling. His expression thereof probably does too. In fact, there are few aspects of social behavior that could be credibly claimed to be devoid of signalling. That said, these points do not impress me in the slightest.
Your public concern with saying it’s not signaling is just a way of signaling;
Yes, public concern surely involves signalling. That doesn’t mean that which is concerned about isn’t also true. Revealing truth is usually an effective form of signalling.
Claiming a certain timespan of belief is just an old locker room way of saying “I got here first.” Which surely is signaling.
It is completely unreasonable to dismiss claims because they are similar to something that was signalling in the locker room. Even the “I got here first” signalling in said locker room quite often accompanies the signaller, in fact, getting there first.
