So who's to blame for HomePod + Siri working only with iTunes and Apple music?

Siri won't control Spotify at all, and Spotify playback on HomePod is only possible indirectly through AirPlay2, which is a buggy pile of crap.

I hope the HomePod closed ecosystem they are focused on relegates that platform to the dustbin of history like the poorly introduced Apple iPod Hi-Fi.
