I also prefer non-SDH subtitle tracks, but if a title only has an SDH track, then that's what I use. Having a mix of the two in my library doesn't bother me all that much.
Okay, thanks for the feedback. I'm really on the fence with it, but I will decide soon. Actually, I have only (1) title in my collection that only has a non-SDH track. This is Silence of the Lambs 4k. Every other title has only a SDH track or both. Did you ever come across any 4k's with only a non-SDH track?
I ask because if there are hardly ANY 4k's that only offer a non-SDH track, I would be more inclined to have my entire library all SHD. This way everything is the same. However, if there are a decent amount of 4k's with only a non-SHD track, I would be more inclined to having a mix of the two in my library. Reason being, I don't want to avoid or discard titles that only have a non-SDH tracks just because I don't want a mix of the two. Although, if Silence of the Lambs is one of the very, very few, I can just discard that one title.

About half of the 4k movies in my library have a subtitle track I have labeled as SDH. That's probably an undercount; if a title has only one subtitle track I might be lazy occasionally and not label it as SDH since it doesn't matter. But even if I'm undercounting by 50%, that implies that about three quarters of my library has SDH subtitle tracks and about a quarter has only non-SDH subtitle tracks.

Spaceballs (1987) seems to be non-SDH only.
Just to clarify, are you saying you only came across 1 movie (Spaceballs 1987) in your entire collection that only offered a non-SDH track? If so, about how many movies do you have in your collection? Again, I'm just trying to get an idea of how rare it is to encounter a 4k movie that only offers a non-SDH track. I don't have a very large collection. I have about 78 movies and only came across one (Silence of the Lambs) that only offered a non-SDH track.
In case you didn't know, I will be removing all the sub tracks from my movies with MKVToolnix. Except for the main track (SHD or non-SHD) and the forced track if there is one.
