I think it would be OK if the software asked us to say "one two
three four" instead of "A C T G". This would make it a lot less arror
prone as it does not use three "words" (See Tee Gee) that all sound so
similar.
I even reprogrammed my talking software because I had a
hard time hearing whether my Mac was saying C or T.
