Post title: I guess I understand your question...
When they say 3 frames maximum, it doesn't mean all subs have to be 3 frames from one another. It means that when two subs have to be as close as possible (one line subtitled over several subs), they must be at least 2 or 3 frames apart. But if there is a short pause between two lines from the same speaker, the gap can be more than 3 frames, of course. I don't think it means you have to merge systematically your subs.
