Love this, though:

> at the end of the day, you have one voice. Humans are single threaded [..] there’s only one word that can come out of your voice at a time.

Try listening to Mongolian throat-singing. Also try stress-induced stuttering, where at best you can only force out a byte or a nibble, only rarely a word. Or, at the other end, constant worry that you’re not a you you’re a we, and we forgot to install a reentrant lock on the voice box of me.
