So "slightly more compressed" means x2 to x4 compressed and more distortion than a cassette tape. The 32 kps will not have tape hiss. 22KHz sampling means less than 11 KHz response, which is about OK. But cassette tapes recorded with AC bias will have lower distortion, if AC Erase they'll have acceptable S/N (hiss) for speech and can manage 11 Khz.
Well, this is to be lauded. Obviously you need a way to store backups on a PC, or use a phone app and an SD card (32 G or 512 G depending on if HC or HX cards supported).
