How often do people change their watch straps?
I changed my strap exactly once, from original to easy adjustable magnetic.
The quick change straps are 100% marketing ploy to sell more straps.

Several times a day, for me. I have one band that I like for exercise, another for work (avoids inflaming carpel tunnel while typing) and a third for the aesthetics when walking around.
If the Apple bands were harder to switch I probably just wouldn’t wear a watch while working and exercising.

On my traditional watches? Almost never, because it's a pain.
On my Apple watches? Often! I wear a nicer strap in dressier situations, but always change to one of the rubber straps for exercise or swimming, and I do those things a LOT.
The Apple innovation here is pretty slick.
