I couldn't care less whether a machine understands what I say, and
that's not the goal. Maybe that just seems like the goal.


Then how would a machine that didn't understand your command execute
the macro that you wanted?

The distinction should be made because "recognition" is far from
"understanding". It does the recognition thing and then matches that
with the most likely possibility from a list of words in its
vocabulary. Word popularity is a heavy factor.

Whatever you call it, the objective is not to get a machine to
understand what you say. A singer conditions his voice with the goal
of wooing an audience, not to make the sound waves move through the
air in a particular way.
