This seems a bit unnecessary to me, but I'd love to proved wrong. Voice as a medium has a nasty discoverability problem and most of the main voice assistant functions are covered first class by all the major assistants (weather, music controls, timers, etc). I hardly know all the features of Alexa and all the features of Cortana, and I have less an idea of what areas one excels in over the other. Can anyone name one?

Alexa (which should be no surprise being from Amazon) is quite strong in the world of ordering products by voice, making shopping lists. Cortana, at least in my case, has a better view/integration of personal assistant things like what my appointments are, what's on my TODO list, people to call/email, things like that.
