Yes. That's a lot... but I also can see Larian doing that - giving Origins VO coupld improve their characterization a lot. I would think that doing a game like BG3 with cinematics and full-VO would be an insane waste of resources but here we are... is recording lines for PC, perhaps with some minor variations to give the origins more personality is really such a jump in investment compared to what they are already doing? When I think of COOP it would make so much sense - one wouldn't need to read lines your companion is picking as they would be acted out. BG3 has at least one instance of the protagonist speaking out during a cinematic dialogue. It might be just a leftover, not confirming anything, but I think it's a possibility worth entertaining.

With D:OS2 Larian released with surprised full VO for NPCs. They might do similar stunt for BG3 but with protagonist: "You can not only play as custom character, but pick one of 8 origins, and they are all fully voice acted!"

I am trying to find original, pre-EA Q&A, but I can't locate it. Can anyone help?
