While I agree both the blind and others, including myself, listen to screen readers and audio at a higher rate, that’s not actually research that’s reviewable and shareable. Speaking for myself, 100% sure the noise-to-signal ratio increases when I do, but if needed, I just go back X-seconds in time to relisten to prior audio. I for sure never literally test my comprehension systematically when doing so relative to when I am not. The speakers, vocabulary, topic familiarity, etc — also make a huge difference; aka prior familiarity in general with the input.

On the flip side, I provided research on transmission rates, which to me seems reasonable, but another user shared research on reception rates, which to me is unreasonable:

To me, I am interested in notable, reviewable progress in understanding the topic — not chatting about it around an internet campfire.
