Face it, in the time you spend arguing and yelling at Alexa because she is such a moron and cannot or will not do what you ask or cannot understand you, you could look up all the information on a much more useful app.

It's a gimmick. It makes a device cooler and more modern to have it work with Alexa--at least that seems to be what marketing people think.
