I think you could use the watch and never force touch. It wouldn’t be great and you wouldn’t even be able to change watch faces, but then I’ve know people who didn’t know how to rearrange app icons in iOS. There are plenty of interactions on in iOS that are not immediately obvious but are shortcuts to things or power user features. My dad would never have discovered cut copy and paste, but I think many people think of that as an essential feature.
