The data doesn't seem to back that up.
3645 [1] unique users switched from the list view to feed view.
Since 1563 [2] clicked links in the list view and 1413 [1] clicking
links in the feed that suggests to me all those users are finding both
sides of the feature (someone could do more complicated queries to
verify if any users didn't discover it if they really want). I'm thus
not worried about this being a problem.
On top of this 1173 [4] unique users also switched back from the feed
view to the list view, so people are jumping between them and finding
use in both views it seems.

1117 known users have used the watchlist as a bookmarking tool for
jumping to pages [1] whereas 1090 have used it to get to diffs, so
there is thus mounting evidence to show there is a need for a reader
version of the watchlist.
...or that users are confused and don't manage to get to the *actual*
watchlist, which requires two clicks instead of one as usual.
