Marksmanship is about hitting the target, not firing first. I would not want a deeply embedded personal assistant that’s always on and learning from me only to get things wrong and frustrate me.

The issue isn't that they don't have these features, the issue is that they announced them in such a way that suggested they were right around the corner, or even that they'd be available on the new iPhone 16, and now it seems increasingly likely that the phone will never have the advertised features.
