Subtitle structure of disney+ seems to be the following.

<div class="dss-hls-subtitle-overlay">
  <div class="dss-subtitle-renderer-wrapper">
    <div class="dss-subtitle-renderer-cue-positioning-box">
      <div class="dss-subtitle-renderer-cue-window">
        <span class="dss-subtitle-renderer-cue">
          <span class="dss-subtitle-renderer-line">...</span>
          <span class="dss-subtitle-renderer-line">...</span>

Setting firefox103 status flag to wontfix because I assume we don't want to uplift this PiP change to Beta 103. This change looks a little risky to uplift because it inspects the Disney web page's content, so we should let the change ride the trains with 104.
