Almost every cinema has a captioning device. Just ask for it. It’s a game changer, really. Some are glasses and some are a box that you twist into the cup holder. It’s amazing.

And many people do not like or can't use that equipment. They want or need open captions.

Don’t like is not a valid reason.
Disability are.

Those who need captions do have disabilities (e.g., deaf/hard of hearing, autism). And many of those do not like closed caption equipment for multiple reasons.

Yes. Some people with autism benefit from open captions.
