Garmin seems to be doing fairly well targeting people who want a simpler smartwatch with a focus on fitness and battery life. I don't don't know who you think you're benefitting by lying about their capabilities, but anyone who buys one on your recommendation expecting a feature rich device is going to be sorely disappointed.

It's not my fault you can't use technology. 🤷 Enjoy your toys.
