No, it is not elegant, and it does not match real life perfectly.
Having -cart1 and -cart2, indexed thus, implies heavily that the original console has two cartridge slots. It doesn't.
The correct way that this should be handled is for the voice cartridge to add its own child slot, which more accurately reflects how the hardware worked:
-cart voice -voice:cart kcmunchkin
