    I have been asking for this (as have many others online) for years - it seems so simple to do, but for some reason the Alexa Team keep ignoring this request.

    I would extend it to ask if we can have multiple spoken phrases to trigger the same routine (without having to recreate another identical routine from scratch)? For example, "Turn off downstairs lights" = "Switch off downstairs lights" = "Turn downstairs lights off" = etc, etc...

    Or at the bare minimum, the ability to duplicate a routine so a change to the trigger phrase can be made without taking ages creating a virtually identical routine.
