For example:
In order to get sender authentication in GPG, you have to sign the message. GPG doesn't do this by default when encrypting a message, but you can choose to add a signature. But even if you do sign the message, GPG provides non-repudiation which means that you can no longer deny that you sent the message. Kestrel provides sender authentication while preserving deniability.
There are a number of other strong security guarantees that are provided by Kestrel's use of the noise protocol. There is more info on some of those properties here [1]
