I have noticed some of the screen responsiveness you mention here at times. I have started turning my Watch off now and then and restarting it. This seems to renew the responsiveness which still a bit slower than on the iOS devices but the restart does improve things. I only do it maybe once every few days though.
I just tried the Activate on wrist raise with the speak on wrist raise off, which is how I have mine set and Siri worked almost every time. I just went through 10 times of raising my wrist and 8 out of 10 tries, Siri gave the tap for me to speak. One time it was ready but didn’t give the tap and one time it failed completely. I find it does best if my arm is at a slight angle, wrist turned slightly away from me. I venture that getting the Watch wet is not a good thing to do. I worry when washing my hands about getting it wet.
