As of now, is Deep Speech viable for real-world applications?

My working theory (corroborated by others on the #machinelearning IRC channel) is that WebRTCVAD is a touch aggressive in slicing up audio, so the beginning and the end of the word can sometimes get partially chopped off resulting in DeepSpeech not understanding the malformed audio its given.

Working on TF Lite version integrated into some other app through the mozillaspeechlibrary code, I can confirm one needs to be careful around WeRTC VAD, but I could get nice results on a Pixel 2 even with some background noise, and in french.
