The .wav format (file calls it RIFF) is a container format. It is a
header that tells you what is the format of the data stream.

The extra software is needed for the gsm codec. This will still be the
case if you won't add the "MS container". It will only take more effort
to tell between that stream and a pile of randome bites.
