  Easier to say and for talon to disambiguate. If you do 6-8 hours voice coding like I have in the past, you'll appreciate every micro optimization.

  No. Talon has a phonetic alphabet, one chosen to be short and easy to disambiguate. Some detail about it here: https://whalequench.club/blog/2019/09/03/learning-to-speak-code.html#the-alphabet https://whalequench.club/blog/2019/09/03/learning-to-speak-c...

    > Newcomers to voice coding often ask why not use the NATO Phonetic Alphabet > With one exception, all the NATO words have more than one syllable (e.g., November has three) and are not efficient for commands like the alphabet that you will use frequently

    Hmm curious why the two syllable "jury" Why not jam, jaw, jail, junk, join, jerk, jest, jazz, jade, etc.

      Was wondering the exact same thing. But my brain stopped after ‘jet’.
