It just drives the point home that it should have, and could have been an app on your phone. If they hadn't sold this as some sort of revolutionary new product and instead were honest to themselves and us about what it was this would be a different story.
Just like all tech bs it's just a bunch of lies to make initial sales that they never follow through with.
But maybe people would like a standalone device, without the distraction a regular smartphone brings.
I'm not defending this thing as AI in its current state is near useless, bar some niche applications. But the decision to make it a standalone device isn't really controversial in my opinion.
I think that you're in the minority with that opinion then. I don't want another thing to carry around. And I don't see how this would be less of a distraction seeing as it doesn't do anything useful. To me that makes it more of a distraction. If you want to not look at your screen to perform tasks that's already an option with your phone using Siri or Google's assistant.
