Unhappy: WatchOS 10.4 requires passcode to use Apple Pay with AssistiveTouch

The following update on WatchOS 10.4 (Using Apple Pay with Confirm with AssistiveTouch will require a passcode for additional security and will not support double clicking the side button) has made using double tap to activate/use apple pay a deal breaker for me.

It was very easy/cool to use my apple pay on my watch to tap in and out of the bus/subway without having to look at and touch my watch as I walked, especially when my hands are full. Now that is no longer possible. I am very unhappy at this new requirement. I'm would like to request this "downgrade" to be removed.

If you too are affected by this please join me and reply in this topic. Thank you
