The poor man’s single lead ECG is complemented by continuous PPG heart rate data. Being able to combine the data of multiple sensors that are synchronized with a single clock provides new opportunities for monitoring and analysis. HRV data is also useful and I’m surprised that it hasn’t been used to estimate the respiration rate.

Quite unlikely they did not try. Reflectance pulse oximetry is unfortunately affected a lot by ambient light and so, even for the Apple Watch, that might have caused unreliable measures.

Using the ECG for RR estimation though should be more than feasible...
