Mag safe should’ve been able to charge Apple watch

I feel it’s a missed opportunity to not have the mag safe charge other iPhone dependent devices.... seems weird

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe next year’s watch will.

Good point. And I would bet the air tags would charge with these too.

Nope.

Correction: Apple should've designed the AW to use qi wireless charging standard.

It's a totally different charging method, so I doubt that's something a software can magically enable.

Might be a problem with the size of the watch, since the charging coils in the phones are significantly bigger.
