Agreed, verbally asking for X might make it easier for Aunt "where's the Any key" Tillie to get a solution, but it doesn't necessarily give a better solution for everyone else. Or, for that matter, solutions you can trust. Remember the pitch for Amazon Dash buttons, where you press it and it maybe-reorders a product for delivery, instantly and sight-unseen? What if the price changed? What if it's not exactly the same product anymore? Wait, did someone else already press it? Maybe I can get a better deal? etc. Actually, that spurs a random thought: Perhaps some of these smart-speaker ordering pitches land differently if someone is in a socioeconomic class where they're already accustomed to such tasks being done competently by human office-assistants, nannies, etc. Their default expectation might be higher, and they won't need to invest time pinching pennies like the rest of us.
