> I use this feature heavily because I can handle most talking at 1.5× to 2.0×
a little of topic, but after years of doing exactly this, I'm having a very hard time handling talking at 1.0x. Normal speed feels like watching in unbearably slow motion.
Agreed. I still okay with real-life speech at 1.0×. But for recorded videos, I can usually handle higher speeds because I am also reading captions at the same time to fill in any unclear words, and I do exercise my option to seek back to re-listen to any part that I didn't understand - two things I can't do in real life.
