Congratulations on missing the point. And please tell me what is easier about saying "What's the weather like tomorrow?" as opposed to the than clicking "Weather" on your front screen? 3 seconds to say versus 1 second to click the button on the screen.

I think you're missing the point. It's about making it accessible in whatever way is most convenient. Sometimes it's easier to type a text message out, sometimes it's not.
The car is one example, but it's not the only one. When I'm lying in bed and receive a text message in the morning I don't want to stare at a bright screen. and type out a response. I would be much more likely to press one button and dictate a message. Same with getting the weather or seeing what I've got on the docket for the day.
Another example is anytime you're doing sports. I like to ski but fumbling with my phone is difficult when it's 30 below. Interacting by voice? Much easier. Your one second suddenly becomes a full minute when I have to take off my mitts.
In short, Apple is thinking about other use cases where interacting with the device can be cumbersome and attempting to provide some relief. I think that's kind of great.
