I assume for the same reason why I would say "turn off WiFi" or "Hey Siri, what 
is the time", it's convenient and if my phone is sitting on the table and I'm 
lying on the couch I don't even have to pick it up or walk over to it. The same 
goes if I am walking with one side of the Earpods in my ear and I have the 
phone in my coat pocket or hip holster, much easier to push the button on the 
remote and ask SIRiI to do stuff or tell you something.
Can I unlock my phone, bring up the control centre or go into Settings > 
Bluetooth to turn it off? Sure, but why go through all the trouble if I don't 
have to.

Im just curious as to why you would ask Siri about the battery status on your 
device when all you have to do is touch the upper left corner of the device?  
Does Siri give more info than I would get by touching the battery percentage in 
the upper right? Not saying that your way is wrong. Like I stated, just 
curious.  I hardly ever use Siri. I prefer to search Google myself. I have my 
apps in folders by category. And dictation..well..if Im going to have to proof 
read & make corrections, I find it just as fast to type e-mails & text 
messages.
