I never mentioned any alternative to the Googlebooks, let alone said something like "$PRECEDING_PRODUCT is fine". You're refuting a kind of categorical naysaying that I haven't actually done.

Maybe some day, someone will make a computer with integrated digital assistants that virtually everyone really wants. Maybe that someone will even be Google.

But I wasn't writing sci-fi or putting together a pitch deck on Google's behalf. I was considering the actual technology (and priorities) they have on offer.
