That indicates that the former is being fed directive-formatted text
which the TTS must strip to the actual pronounceable content -vs- just
funneling selected text into the TTS, already absent formatting content.

What it really means is that the TTS is not doing an especially good job
of stripping.  Xiphos' TTS does a careful job of feeding only
post-processed text.
