How to enable routines to disarm Home Security Alarm.

I understand that it is a security concern and risk if disarm is enable using voice assistant but why can I not do it via routine where I am explicitly requesting my alarm to disarm after a certain time?

There is a big demand for this functionality and I am not the only one. https://assistant.google.com/services/a/uid/000000bf66cb1091?hl=en-US 

This restriction is preventing a lot of potential in home automation. Things that are useful if we had disarm ability:

-Alarm to arm/part-arm automatically past bedtime and disarm after morning alarm.

-Alarm to arm/part-arm automatically when no one is home and disarm when close.

This not only makes home safer but makes actual use of the alarm where most people just leave idle.
