It isn't too surprising that some things get routed over general domains that the company already owns. Probably the facebook domain since they bought WhatsApp way before they rebranded to meta.
This for once isn't anything malicious. Dunno if I would call it best practice, but they probably don't intend to unbundle WhatsApp in the near future.
