So when you think about it horses had be be introduce to Europe as well and horses are indeed something even Europeans "continue to enjoy to this day" like the Lipenstein Stallion.

And many of the other "conveniences" were developed outside of Europe and where at some point in history introduced there. No one country or people have a monopoly of inventions. Besides Indians gaining your "conveniences" you mentioned the Columbian Exchange brought the potato, corn, and pepper to to the rest of the world, where they had a population boom.
No **** they were reintroduced, but it's not as though the Indians of the time were conscience of this fact. The entire plains Indian horse culture originated because of this interaction. The point being Indians weren't to keen on general resistance to Europeans for, among other reasons, their desire to trade with Europeans.
