Why always Tea. Earl Grey. Hot.?

The computer should know it’s you in your own office. It should know that you’ve not suddenly become an Oolong drinker.

This is a good question ! The simple answer is that I quite enjoy saying it, it rolls off the tongue.
Just saying Tea, Earl Grey feels like it is missing something, and we do not generally say "please" to the computer to acknowledge and remind ourselves that it is not a sentient being.
