Answer phonecall using "Hey Siri"??

Dear all, why is it that we cannot answer phone call using "Hey Siri"??

Can't we just say "Hey Siri, answer the phone" or "Hey Siri, answer the phone call"

when the phone is ringing?

iPhone SE, iOS 13

How do I use Siri to dial immediately, without Siri reading back the number? (iPhone 12 Pro) When I say "hey Siri, dial 704-444-4444", Siri first reads back to me my command and then makes the call. What I want is for Siri to dial 704-444-4444 immediately, without a delay in telling me she's calling 704-444-4444. So I want to be able to say "Hey Siri, dial 704-444-4444 and my iphone to immediate begin dialing that number without a delay, without Siri reading back to my what I just told her to do. This is all about making dials quickly and the Siri read back of the command slows that process. Any suggestions I can toggle in settings to make it this way? Thanks.
