The document says "The WebSpeech API allows websites to enable speech
input within their experiences." and that it is emphatically NOT
"Text-to-speech/narration".
This doesn't correspond to the original email here:
As of October 11th, the Emerging Technologies Team intend to turn "Web
Speech API" on by default in *Nightly only* on Mac, Windows, and Linux. It
has been developed behind the "media.webspeech.recognition.*" and
"media.webspeech.synth" preference.
What is the "synth" part if not speech synthesis ie TTS ?

Note that because this is only being pref'ed on in Nightly, it should be
considered a kind of "intent to experiment". This is to allow the ET team
to get a better understanding of what need to be fixed to get better
interop and what needs to be fixed in the spec. Concerns with the current
spec around outlined in:
https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/170
Collaboration with Google folks is ongoing to address some of those at the
spec level.
