I understand the point of your message, but what if say you are hearing impaired like my wife is and blind. I take that into consideration also.

Particularly as I believe that the creators may well read this list. Espeak, to my mind, is the best of the free speech synthesisers out there. Commercial outfits have the resources to generate different voices and the resources they have inevitably impact on the result. Espeak appears to be a work in progress and is clearly improving. The efforts of those behind it deserve our respect and assistance if we can provide it. Espeak has increasing variants and there may be a case for changing the default voice, perhaps to Michael or Male 6.

I like the program, but the Espeak one is crap. I don't care much for the MS trio. I have Real Speak Solo direct on here, but of course those don't work with NVDA.
