> could voice somehow be a "progressive enhancement" to the web?
I have created my own TamperMonkey plugin that adds TTS to web pages. It finds text, makes it clickable, and when a user clicks a word, it starts reading from there, highlighting text as it reads it, skipping menus and chrome. I find this helps me better focus on reading. Unfortunately I can only stand one single voice and it's been stagnating for years (Alex from Mac OS). Can't wait to hear the WaveNet voice Google has been threatening to give us.
