| But who wants to listen to a computer copy of someone else's voice? No one.

Id imagine a lot of people would be up for doing this if it improved call quality..

If you could reconstruct a persons voice from text in realtime locally on your phone you would only need to transmit compressed text during the call reducing the bitrate a tonne. And those volume issues and difficult to remove voice artefacts would cease to be a problem too (assuming the senders side can still transcribe correctly).
