Does anyone else text someone else in your own home if they are in another room? Am I just too lazy to go talk to them? Are you like me?

If we’re not in the same room, we use an encrypted messenger. We do DMs and have a group chat.
If we’re in the same room but don’t want the kids to hear, we’ll message too. If you ask out loud if we should get pizza, a no would prompt a mutiny.
We tried to use assistant broadcast, but it fails everytime someone turns the volume down on one. They need to fix the volume for broadcasts.
They have a lot of long-standing bugs but it seems like Google Assistant isn’t really being prioritised by Google at the moment. They’re actually removing a bunch of features: https://www.zdnet.com/home-and-office/work-life/google-assistant-will-lose-these-17-features-in-the-next-few-weeks/
Broadcasts via Google’s API also fail if the network has IPv6 enabled. That’s been broken for years and I doubt it’ll ever be fixed.
So, it’s EOL but they’re still collecting as much data as possible, basically?
