The pseudo-random sequence is designed to be so long before it repeats that the chances of figuring out anything by decoding what's transmitted, is very remote. From what I understand, voice inversion causes a loss of audio quality (and range) because after inversion at the TX it needs to be filtered, then filtered again after recovery at the RX. The filters are not perfect and the audio is degraded.
I read a whole book on analog voice scrambling (about 15 years back). It mentions that people can be trained (in a matter of days) to understand inverted speech.
Another interesting type is called time-domain scrambling. Think of it like having an electronic "tape" which is cut up in short pieces (less than a syllable) and spliced out of order, transmitted; and only the RX knows how to re-order it correctly. I've heard it on low-band skip (probably military) and it sounds bizarre, human yet non-human at the same time.

I have never met anyone who can understand inverted speech. I have listened to many hours of scrambled speech including rolling code. If you try to crack rolling code, most of the time all you get is a string of words if your lucky and know what you're doing.
