Wasn't there a huge leap in capabilities between series 0 and even series 1? Surely we can be reasonable about how timelines work with breakout technology. Getting 5-10 years out of a watch seems like an admirable goal, but expecting that to happen with tech in it's infancy doesn't seem reasonable, nor conducive to actually accomplishing that goal.
I also don't completely understand the tone, this dev is measuring the installed base of different models. If their users are suddenly < 5% on the seminal model of the watch, then screw halting progress for 95% of your users just to hold on to that 5%. Expectations shouldn't be measured in years, it should be measured in adoption base, and optimizing for where your users are. And that number is going to wildly swing based on maturity of the tech, and that's going to change over time, so trying to throw out a year range as table stakes to apply forever is just a little crazy.
