There are no new sensors in 9 than in 8.

Different processor, battery life, etc sure..

Business reason is clear: they lost the oxygen sensor, so people hesitant to upgrade.

    Different processor seems like a possible reason if they’re using new instructions.

    Of course I’m not saying it doesn’t line up nicely with a business reason to incentivize upgrades.

    Someone else claims the 9 has a better accelerometer… what’s your source that ‘there are no new sensors’?

    So there’s no way a better processor would be needed to get acceptable all night battery life and that could be the reason?

    Sounds like you may have nailed exactly why they did it.
