I've actually stopped caring about the discussion, to be honest. It's at the point now where neither your opinion nor mine will be swayed by what the other has to say. It's at the point where civil discourse has the potential to turn into random crap-slinging and I'd rather avoid that.
I think people are going to look like idiots speaking commands in full sentences to their phones, and I feel that I can access the data I want faster through manual inputs than by speaking voice commands. I value the concept of "as much as necessary, as little as possible". You feel otherwise. There's not much else to say.
