Unlimited silence removal means you can detect and remove silent gaps without usage caps.

How it works:
1. Subclip detects non-spoken gaps in the audio timeline.
2. If there is more than ~500ms of silence between spoken segments, those segments can be flagged as removable silence.
3. You can remove them using Edit Video Like a Doc for rough cuts and ripple-delete style timeline cleanup.
4. The same cleanup can reflect in transcription flow so text and timing stay aligned.

Typical use case:
- Quickly tighten long recordings into clean rough cuts before subtitle styling, dubbing, or final export.
