Changing an alarm via Siri requires unnecessary extra step when only one alarm is active

One of the most useful features of Siri is arguably setting alarms from bed by yelling "HEY SIRI PLEASE SET MY ALARM FOR 8:30 ALRIGHT THANKS!". This either turns on an existing alarm at this time or silently creates a new one as need be. This is what people expect from Siri. But later when you realize "oh shitzu, I need to get him groomed before work and yell "HEY SIRI PLEASE CHANGE MY ALARM TO 7:30", Siri will reply, "There are 30 of them. Tap the one you'd like to change.", at which point I need to take off my eye-mask, sigh deeply, and get out of bed to tap the alarm I want changed even though there is clearly only one active alarm which in an earlier context, I just set. Changing an unspecified alarm should be special cased to only ask "which" alarm when there is more than one alarm currently set. Thank you and goodnight.
