The US Department of Justice is currently suing Apple for this exact reason [1].

They claim that Apple imposes restrictions on every non-Apple watch. Users then prefer the Apple Watch not because Apple made it better but because Apple made all other watches worse.

If you are frustrated that Pebble takes longer to develop around artificial restrictions, I would direct those frustrations at the company creating the restrictions not at Pebble.

Have you even read my original comment? I‘m criticizing their internal stance towards the iOS platform, and not the feature set.
