No...you misunderstand.
You said:
"these features were not working as planned, so we are dropping them for now"

What they said is:
"These features really don't exist, we said we'd include them, but now we realize we have no idea how to go about it. We may in the future though."

After all they did say "planned".

WinFS was originally "planned" for release when?
