 Steves call after listening: pursue 7B (weights already downloaded, same
 venv/script, swap `--model_path`) or not worth it given the limitations
 the prior research already flagged.
 ## 7B result (2026-09-30, same script/seed/voices)
 `trailer_promo_4speaker_vibevoice-7b.mp3` - VibeVoice-7B, same seed (42),
 same script, same reference voices. 34.8s of audio generated in 22.2s
 (RTF 0.64x - still faster than real-time, just less headroom than 1.5B).
 Whisper-transcript check: cleaner than 1.5B - neither of 1.5Bs unscripted
 insertions ("I am here!", "For me,") appeared, and "He will." came through
 exactly right this time (1.5B had drifted it to "You will."). One real
 deviation: Marges defensive line "I get one fact wrong per episode."
 came out as a question, "Can I get one fact wrong per episode?" - changes
 the delivery/meaning, not just wording. Still no audible disclaimer and
 nothing that reads as injected background music.
