Hah. Reminds me of carplay: "text (name)" "what would you like to know about (name)?" "f****** text them" dance daily while driving.

Just today: “give me directions to the ferry terminal”. I’m on an island with one terminal, I shouldn’t have to be specific.

“Here’s a list of three ferry terminals that are on different islands, none of which are the island you’re on.”

“Give directions to the Orcas Island ferry terminal.”

“Here’s directions to the Port of Orcas Island, which is on the side of the island opposite the ferry terminal.”

If I weren’t driving a camper van on narrow roads, I would have taken her up on the “other island” option. “How do you propose we get there, Siri? Maybe start by driving to the g-ddamned ferry terminal?!”

You might want to update your information a bit.

Oh, nice, they added a confirmation screen before you call! I'm not sure when they're planning to roll that feature out to Europe but once they do, maybe Siri will be occasionally slightly useful when I need to call someone while my hands are dirty or while I'm driving.
