probably because smart rings are stupid
The temperature based cycle tracking the smart ring has is a decade ahead of what the watch is able to do. My wife has an Apple Watch and still uses and prefers her oura ring because of the cycle tracking
It’s more accurate than other thermometer based cycle trackers mostly because you never take it off and it gets significantly more data points throughout the day at very consistent intervals than something like the Mira or into.
Newer Apple Watches added that feature 2 years ago: https://www.theverge.com/2022/9/7/23341259/apple-watch-series-8-ovulation-period-tracking-temperature-sensor https://support.apple.com/en-ca/102674
