Time and place
I’m 100% a text everything never calls person but I can’t live without Alexa these days, every time I’m in a hotel or on vacation I nearly ask a question out loud.
I also hate how much Alexa sucks so this is a big deal. I spent years weeding out what it could do and can’t do so it will be nice to have one that I don’t have to treat like a toddler

I wouldn't say speaking is mostly for short exchanges of information. Sometimes it's the opposite: my wife will text me for simple comments or requests, but for anything complicated she'll put the phone to her ear and call me. Or coworkers often want to set up a meeting rather than exchange a series of asynchronous emails -- iteration, brainstorming, Q&A, and the like can be more agile with voice than it can with text.
Is it so?
Speaking most of the time is for short exchange of information (pleasantries to essential information exchanges).
I prefer writing for long in-depth thought exchanges (whether by emails, blogs etc.)
In many cultures - European or Asian, people are not very loquacious in everyday life.
