You may like it.  I like my sidstation's sound as is
(although i wouldn't mind more flexibility, it's not
something I'd openly badmouth the company over)

No, they've let no one down.  *YOU* didn't learn about
the synth you spent money on.  *YOU* didn't check to
make sure it had all the features you want.  *YOU* let
yourself down.  Elektron has let NO ONE down, because
they are open and honest about their products.   My
entire setup is Elektron gear and a Behringer mixer. 
And I'll continue to buy their products because
they've always been very active in their product
communities, even releasing 100 MachineDrums at a
discounted price to people who purchased sidstations,
just to get their feedback and ideas.  Most companies
just release the buggy version first, wait to hear the
complaints, and then release a new version altogether,
and rake in the cash.  Elektron actually cares about
their users, and I take great offense to anyone saying
they've let the community down.

In your opinion.  "Crappy" is very subjective, and
it's a little immature to scream about a company
making a synth who's sound you don't like, after
you've already purchased it.  Especially with so many
sound samples available online, the manual, reviews,
etc.  You made an uninformed purchase, and for some
odd reason you think it's Elektron's fault.

We don't need an update.  If Elektron feels like
blessing us with one, that's great.  More power to
them.  But the current OS works fine for the people
who weren't stupid and dropped the money on it before
learning about it.

It does, actually.  Well, when I'm wearing undies,
that is. ;)
