    I don’t know, would they make an augmented human, even one with special dispensation to be in Starfleet, the official computer voice?

      At some point her face starts showing up on recruitment posters, so maybe? On the other hand, we only saw a poster like that 100 years after her time, so maybe not.

      Alternatively, she leant her voice specifically to the Enterprise computer, as seen in TOS. Then years later, when it was decided to standardize voices across the fleet, they just went with what was used on the Enterprise. Because the Enterprise always seems to be the favourite of the fleet.
