If even that.  They(?) probably did it just to prove a point.  I can't see
that being all that useful or even desirable.  However as a demo just to
show what is possible then it really shines seeing it is that last place

I am not sure about that.  I don't really want voice commands but I suppose
someone might need them.  I certainly don't want to talk to my watch.  :-)
