I love my Google Pixel because the Assistant acts as my "receptionist." It fields all calls from phone numbers it doesn't recognize, and the call only rings on my end once the person calling has identified themselves to Assistant.
If a company wants to do business with someone, would they be willing to leave a voicemail with a return number? That is a good point. If we do not want calls going to voicemail due to expecting an important call, we will temporarily disable the feature.
