[xlbkpksj] Speech

Consider the guideline, speech is bad for digital (discretized) information.  What then is speech good for?

Analog information, with many shades of meaning along not well defined axes.
When needing rapid interaction.
When needing compact (i.e., nonexistent) additional equipment to convey the information.  Only mouth and ears.

Inspired by the difficulty of accurately providing the pizza delivery address over the phone versus online ordering.
