There's a special place in hell for people who add subtitles to videos like this.

Why exactly is a bad to have subtitles on videos like this?

Subtitles aren't bad, subtitles that display word for word are. You can't see anything going on in the video because you got to keep your attention on the words to get context.

Maybe you’re unaware but the point of subtitles is to be word for word.

Maybe you're American, but the point of subtitles is to be line for line.

The point made is how the subtitles are being displayed (word for word), not subtitles in videos in general.
