Because they insist on mixing the audio in a shitty way so unless you want to fiddle with the audio-level every 5 seconds or have your eardrums shattered by action/suspense-scenes, you can't hear dialogue and need subs to understand what the fuck is going on...

Edit: and before people start saying "5.1 in stereo is the cause!1!!1!1", no forcing stereo does absolutely nothing to alleviate this.

It's not that it's mixed shitty, it's that they never remixed it for new releases. So it still uses the theater audio mix and range where there's 12,000+ watts of audio power available and like 12 audio channels.

When they actually remix it to a home release format the issues almost always go away. Even remixing for 5.1 most TVs can downmix to stereo just fine.

That and that they intentionally make the commercials about 30% louder than the show

Commercials? What are those? Sounds like a boomer thing.
