If I bought a product for a specific feature and that company then removes that feature, I would absolutely not want to buy their new product - out of spite, in part, but it also just seems like an unwise investment

I’ll go one further: I ordered the plus version of the bike, and the sales guy spent a good 50% of the upswell from the regular bike explaining about the Apple Watch support. I’ll be cancelling the order (before it’s even been delivered) now, and probably never considering another product from them.

I don’t know about the US, but in Germany taking away a key feature from people who paid for said feature without compensation is enough for a big lawsuit.

Germany isn't exactly famous for harsh rulings on companies' unlawful activities.
