Hi Tyler and others,
A very quick code review:
* Modernization request: may I ask that we somehow modernize the add-on -
for instance, using globalVars and writing a readme?
* Command conflicts: Except for save settings command, others conflict with
columns review and/or other add-on commands and core which uses
Control+NVDA+number commands.
* Using loops to process settings: I think it might be better to split the
main scripts into two or more components: a dedicated function that'll loop
over the needed settings, and a mechanism in scripts to call the routines.
Cheers,
Joseph

On an add-on proposal on the NVDA User list, a fellow member shared an
add-on named Switch Synth. Usage instructions and download link were given
by him. I haven't been able to test the add-on enough yet, just installed
it, but it sounds pretty interesting according to the descriptions provided
by the person who shared the add-on.
Could it be considered for inclusion to the NVDA Community Add-ons site, if
possible?

There's an add-on called SwitchSynth which would allow you to do this.
You can download it from:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hahwv1abjip2wst/switch_synth.nvda-addon?dl=1
The add-on offers four slots for previously-saved speech configurations.
To use, first choose a slot by pressing NVDA+Ctrl+1 to 4 on the number row.
Then, simply set the synth settings you want, e.g. voice, language, rate,
etc., and then press NVDA+Control+Shift+S to save them in that slot. Repeat
that process for the other three slots if you wish. The reason this is a
better solution than a language-specific one is that you can save multiple
voice profiles in the same language, for example if you use different
settings for reading books, but you can also make it incredibly easy to
switch between languages with a single keystroke.
