If we want to be sticklers for perception, then we perceive voicing,
acoustic "shapes" which at least partially correlate to articulatory
positioning, fundamental frequency, turbulence, etc.

Articulatory features or perceptual ones... it doesn't matter. Alphabets
don't analyze at that level, and SW does. Not the same.
