It's supposed to make us feel comfortable and at home whenever we arrive. If a team doesn't have 30 seconds to read my profile and I have to remind them, I don't feel very welcome.
I have called the FD when we get a totally wrong amenity selection and every time they've been very apologetic and quick to get us something, so I can't say anything too bad about the staff. Again, just seems to go against the nature of the benefit.
I always look at the amenity list as "suggestions." If I really wanted something specific, I'd email the hotel in advance and ask them to be sure that's what was provided.
