Why does Apple Watch keep installing apps I didn’t ask it to

apple-watchapplicationsbugsettings

The iOS Apple Watch app has a setting (General > Automatic Download > Automatically Download Apps) that is described as follows

When this is on and you have apps on your iPhone that also work with
Apple Watch, those apps will automatically download and appear on your
watch home screen.

But whenever an iOS app on my phone is updated to include Apple Watch support, it gets added to my Watch, even when this setting is off.

How do I prevent newly Watch-enabled apps from downloading themselves?

That setting is not working. This is Apple's Bug. I confirmed with Apple support. Latest watch os 1.0.1 still Buggy.
