Apple watch not being on Android only means Apple doesn't support Android. No one else can support Apple's hardware, especially considering their litigious nature and suing for rectangles and logos. Technical capability exists, it's only a matter of money and whether they want to do it. Either way you turn it it's Apple's decision, and therefore their fault if something is not on Android.
What 9to5mac is doing is deflecting the guilt and rambling on about how Google bought Fitbit as if that has anything to do with their own support of Android. Samsung, Huawei, Honor and bunch of others have absolutely no issues making and supporting their watches on Android.
That's exactly it. But it's Apple's decision. Google didn't go and decide Apple can't have applications on Play store. So it's absolutely Apple's fault.
