Stopwatch drains battery at very high rate

[Tervel]

This is an issue I have noticed with all of my Samsung watches but can easily reproduce it with my Ultra and my 5.  The stopwatch app, if left running (no screen time - just counting time) drains the battery at a rate of ~10% per HOUR.  This is ridiculous as tracking a workout, which obviously runs a stopwatch itself along with high precision GPS and I am assuming more heart monitoring for blood oxygen (VOX measured ?) will only use 3-4% of the battery in an hour.    This is easy for me to replicate at any time by simply turning on the stopwatch and letting it run unchecked.  I routinely find the most consuming app to be the stopwatch when I look at app power history.

This is NOT Normal application power usage. The stop watch was on for an hour and a half and accounts for 14 percent of the power usage so far.
I have asked that you stop replying to this thread as you continually MISS the point of my post.

The same to Galaxy Watch 7 - stopwatch drains battery, and after update to UI8 the same. Such a long time could not fix this? Shame.

Any chance this will be fixed soon? It's crazy that such a simple app frains battery that fast!
