    For me personally, I want to limit interactions with my phone by reading notifications on my wrist increasing interactions with my watch

    That just sounds like interactions with your phone but with extra steps.

      Nah, there’s a fair bit of legitimacy in wanting to minimize how often you pull out your phone. If you can’t ignore notifications (i.e. devops) it’s nice to be able to check them without getting the full device out.

        Yeah, exactly. A buzz in my pocket, pull out the phone, see a bunch of different distracting stuff vs glance at my wrist, know it’s a casual message from a friend I can respond to later or in rare cases, something I need to deal with immediately. It’s a lot less mental energy
