Those kinds of things could fill a presentation, especially once you add in the usual third-party demos and all.
I don't think they want the iPad Pro to be conceived of as "consumer". Especially not this revision — the Air just moved up in price, and has much of the Pro's feature set. They're gonna move the Pro further up, and make it even more of a "pro" product.

Also, were watch bands ever shown at any event (other than new watch band types)? New spring/fall revisions of bands usually just come as quiet press releases, no?
