the voice acting can never sound terrible

Yeah, that's bullshit. I've heard many terrible Japanese subs.

They didn't say the voice acting never is terrible, just that they won't be able to hear it. It's the same way for me. I don't know what Japanese is supposed to sound like when it's spoken naturally, so even if the acting would sound fake to someone who speaks Japanese, it wouldn't sound fake to me, because for all I know, it's supposed to sound like that. Same thing with English before I learned to speak it (ie, before I was ten) - since I had no idea what English usually sounded like, nothing seemed particularly wrong.

Of course, many people don't realize this is about subjective experience, and think the acting must really be better if it sounds okay to them, but, well, they're wrong.

That was exactly what I was objecting to. It's very nice that you specifically can't tell when a sub is shit if you don't speak the language, but that is not a general rule.

It's a general rule.

Maybe you can tell because you consume a ridiculous amount of their media, but most people cannot tell poor acting spoken in another language that they do not understand.
