For voice integration, you can just provide a bluetooth microphone on you device and have it access Siri. Garmin have tried the same strategy on some of their watches. What you can't do is reply to a text without using voice, which is what I'd like.

This indicates that the inability for my Amazfit Balance to do this is indeed an artificial limitation, and not something that Apple prevents. <https://np.reddit.com/r/amazfit/comments/1j3ftbr/why_cant_balance_talk_to_siri_on_ios/ https://np.reddit.com/r/amazfit/comments/1j3ftbr/why_cant_ba...>

  If your watch does not support Bluetooth Classic with the headset profile then you can't pretend to be a mic. So watches with Bluetooth LE only can not utilize Siri.

    That makes sense! Thank you for the explanation.

I wonder if you could synthesize a voice with TTS saying "hey siri, send a text to X saying Y", and send that over bluetooth as if it was mic input.

So Pebble needs to open a Siri connection, ask it to read the latest text, then speech-to-text the response and show it on the watch. And then the same in the other direction.
