Apple Watch and message app Interface

The latest update now requires an extra tap in the message app to perform what was previously very efficient to reply using dictation.

Now, you must tap the iMessage button within a conversation then tap on an a tiny little microphone icon icon to reply with voice dictation.

Who at Apple decided to bury dictation, which is the killer feature of the message app on the watch under another option that now optimizes for drawing each letter to reply? I know Apple has to usage metrics and there is no way that most people are drawing each letter to reply to a conversation.

Please fix this Apple! Or at least provide an option to customize the reply actions so dictation can be a first class reply action.
