Interesting observations. As one example of "wish list" items that is particularly close for me is my requests for the keying algorithms be expanded to include Ultimatic keying. I have been asking for that since the early days of the K2, but so far has not been forthcoming. I guess there are not enough other 'squeaky wheels' out there to make it to the list of priority changes. I really don't mind because I have resigned myself to the use of single lever paddles. It would be nice to be able to do dot/dash insertions that are possible with Ultimatic keying, but I simply cannot do Iambic keying with dual lever paddles.

Maybe someday Wayne will have time to add it, but I am not holding my breath, and I don't think my K2, K3 and KX3 are poorer transceivers because my request has not been implemented - there are other more important things "on the list".

As outside observer, it seems the K3 is more of a process than a product. I doubt it will ever be a finished product, with a static list of features and capabilities.

Instead, one buys into an ongoing, organic, developing process. It has never been "finished" and likely never will. You either accept the process or maybe you don't because they spend more time developing features you are not interested in, whilst the one's you desire remains on the wish list.
