Ulitmaker has been working on this project for a long time, so I'm sure they didn't want to promise something that wasn't quite ready.
It's a young company. I guess nobody would be upset if they'd ever need to say "due to limited resources und unforeseen complications, we need to postpone our product launch by 4 weeks" (actually, it already happened anyway; if You order now, You'll receive the UM3 in November). Just look at Kickstarter, how many companies have delays? I never cared. Look at Tesla, they're big, and always in delay, and nobody's angry...
My short rant
I tried to keep it short, too. I failed miserably, as always.
even without dual they can do pretty much anything if you plan the models ahead.
This applies to parts that were meant to be 3D-printed from the beginning. It does not apply if You want to print a sample of a cylinder head that later-on will be manufactured in a 5-piece steel mold with 2 sandcores.

I think is was very clear that there won't be an upgrade, almost teo years ago I called by phone to ultimaker and asked to the sales person if there would br a dual for um2 and they told me that 'no it could be too expensive and would need too many important changes to the machine'.
So I don't see the issue since all was clear. I got my first umo+ year and a half ago and started to learn 3d printing and even made a dual magnetic version based on foehnsturm designs.
I also use them for my business and I think they are great machines and even without dual they can do pretty much anything if you plan the models ahead.
