"Ah, maybe it is something to do with the vowels preceding it, like 'i'?"
Nice try, disembodied voice, but no!

Suffossion (ok, I admit I had to look that one up :P )

Only preceded by 'u' do we get a reliable difference

I'm confused. Why is it weird that the letter before -ion should be only s or t? Should lion now be tion?

hey, thanks for commenting on my silly thing :P
I wasn't being serious but it's about pronunciation not changing when the letter changes - 'tion' and 'sion' sound the same in all these context.
Although the answer to your question is yes!
"Rawr, I'm an angry tion, I disavow the long feline liony sound of my vowels and embrace a hard sound like shun, and emission and even suffossion which is a word that means undermining something apparently. "

Ohhh, pronounciation! Now it makes sense
