Why doesn't TiVo help me resolve conflicts?

This is my current biggest complaint with the TiVo interface. If I have a show I want to record, and there are multiple showings, why do I have to manually check each to determine if they conflict with stuff I already have scheduled to record? How hard could it possibly be to check for the conflicts against my current schedule before showing me the available showings? This is a pretty major deficiency in my mind.

Yes! I love my TiVo, but I am frustrated when it simply says "sorry, there is a conflict!" Why can't it show me alternate show times for the new show or the old conflicting show? Or better yet, just figure it out on its own.
