Sure, you can do all those things, but I can still do them when you can't. Like when your hands are holding something, or dirty because you are washing dishes, or turning on the lights while your hands are full. And the benefit is, I don't have to remember my phone. It can be sitting wherever, and I can still do these things. > I really don't see much of a benefit to having an alexa or similar device. So? I like having a remote car starter, too, despite being able to walk out and start the car manually. I like GrubHub, even though I could call up and order from places on the phone. I enjoy streaming video over DVRing shows. I value convenience. Maybe you value other things. That's fine. So then... > I dunno. What? What don't you know?
