For instance, Assassin’s Creed Origins had subtitles turned off by default and 60% of players turned them on.

As if my ADHD ass could choose to only pay attention to the subtitles anyway?

It's like reading a road sign while driving on the freeway. I can read the sign out of my peripheral vision, without focusing on it or taking my eyes off the road. I assumed everyone did this?

I don't think you can read signs in your peripheral vision without focusing on them.

Looking at road signs is done very quickly yes but you definitely are shifting your focus for a sec.
