That makes sense. Then the question in the context of "learning styles" is, if these differences are real, are they actionable -- can we produce measurable differences in outcomes?

Hermy-own. I stumbled on it every single time.

that reminds me of reading Huckleberry Finn and having no idea what Jim was referring to when he used the word 'chile' until I actually sounded it out and then everything Jim was saying made sense
I do the same in English when reading fast. I distinctly remember reading "Hermione" in Harry Potter as a child, and, because it was a name I hadn't encountered before, just "reading over" it and not thinking about the actual pronunciation. I didn't think about the actual pronunciation until some years later (probably when it was brought up in the books). Even now, if I try to pay attention to my internal monologue whilst reading, it's often words running into each other or being skipped, unless I deliberately slow down, because I'm not actively subvocalising and I'm reading faster than I would pronounce them.
