I'm sure someone will rush in here before long and defend Garmin's decisions on these updates.

Crazy that the Fenix E receives all those features and the Fenix 7/Epix Pro versions don't. Garmin being Garmin.

It sure is poor update. No logic whatsoever why some features are made for cheaper watches but not for Fenix 7/Epix.
