Isn't this what I conveyed? I think I made it pretty clear that one can't 
make complex requests of the IOS reminders and alarms using Siri. Please 
experiment with it and you will see for yourself.

That's not totally true, you cannot set up 1 reminder to go off
hourly. Siri will tell you that it can't remind you that often. SO
that works for something that you may need to set a reminder for once
a day, or 3 times a day, where you could set 3 different alarms, but
settting reminders to go off from 6 AM to midnight, which is what
she's looking for, would be quite a task to configure with the native
Reminders application.
