As encoded on disc. Pure white is pure white, so the max amount that your particular display supports when displaying HDR content. If your display only can do 300 nits, it’s still the going to be the maximum, making for an unpleasant viewing experience.

I’m just hoping for a solution to a very real problem & oversight.

Yes, if the subtitles are encoded as 100% white, they're "encoded" or seen as 10,000 nits and will display at the level your display displays a 10,000 nit signal. Possibly can even trigger ABL fluctuations if the character talking is a motormouth.

Or you're watching the dark knight, it's dark as a cave in your HT man cave. Suddenly Batman says "I am the night! SWEAR TO ME!". You're blind, the crook is not.
