I wonder if someone could make an ADA or CVAA complaint on that basis? Technically the dub isn't matching the captions, and as a result, someone who is hard of hearing isn't getting the same experience. Someone who is completely deaf won't have a bad experience, but someone who has a disability where they can't hear very well, or have problems comprehending spoken words might have a problem.

Not deaf, but I've got an auditory processing disorder. If subtitles don't exactly match what I'm hearing I can't understand shit. It's like listening to two conflicting conversations at the same time.

I hate when subtitles like leave a few words out. It's different from the anime thing discussed. It's more like 99% correct but they'll sort of just ignore some clauses of sentences. It's very disorienting. This is more of a thing in YouTube, but I HATE when subtitles bleep out swears that aren't bleeped in the audio.

Subtitles should not editorialize the content!
