So... it's just chat. With some integrations. I already stated this:

Thanks for the confirmation.

Just because the integrations present the data to the user in a chat interface does not make it "just chat."

It's OK though. I know you're just being obtuse.

How is that not chat? You didn't have this ability before (although more manual)? What is so utterly amazing about this?

And no it doesn't bring "all the information" together, there's still plenty happening outside of it.

Enjoy using it but we don't need all the abstract hyperbole.
