KittenTTS uses the espeakng-loader library to run espeak-ng. This may be redundant if the user already has the package installed, so I think there should be an option to use the system's native espeak-ng. Take me, for example: I have an optimized version of espeak-ng for my PC, but KittenTTS insists on using the vendored version from espeakng-loader.
