The variation is smaller than folklore suggests (within 0.04 accuracy across the accents I handled) \u2014 the bigger predictor is audio channel quality and whether the speaker reads or improvises. Improvised speech costs ~0.09 accuracy regardless of accent. Glossaries still help technical vocab most.",
