All these products were previously imaginedand started by SJ. Cook is a marketer not a visionary or inventor of any sort.

That's not an accurate depiction of Tim Cook - a man who is a very capable supply chain guy and general businessman. My personal opinion? Steve Jobs was the marketer -- his skill was getting other people with hard skills to buy into his general vision. (Recall the "reality distortion field" he possessed.)

No. The Apple Watch was started under Cook.
