From a technical perspective, sure: it's clear why it functions like that, and there's no technical reason it shouldn't. From a user interface perspective— likely what most people would judge with intuition— that doesn't matter. Processes that mimick familiar interaction patterns cause dissonance when they don't match our mental model of those interactions, and familiar conversation is about as familiar as you get. People we interact with know the things we explicitly tell them or guide them through figuring out, and people intuitively interact with these applications as they would with people because they've deliberately adopted the voice of an individual person. Additionally, for SaaS products, we're used to them maintaining state automatically. (As annoying as our input can be, this is why dev teams that try to solve problems for non-dev users have designers.)
