It's not my favorite because it sounds to me like its speakers are trying
to gag/cough up their words :). I don't particularly care for the nasality
of it either... sounds like speaking through the nose.

But it has this very formal business feel to it,

Don't get me wrong it's very interesting grammar and history wise.
