Anyone else have this on DVD and able to comment on what I'm seeing and think is a bug?

I have the Region 1 Buena Vista/Disney release and every time a sign appears in the movie, an English caption with the exact same name apppears over the video. The issue here is that I have turned off Subtitles and Captions. And.... The signs in the movie are already in English! There's absolutely no point in seeing giant yellow subpicture-rendered text proclaiming "HATTER'S" under an animated wooden sign that already reads "Hatter's"

I'd be curious to find out if this happens on the Region 2 release or if anyone out there with Region 1 does not see the problem. I found it annoying as hell while watching the movie. The text is definitely sub-picture and not part of the video/animation track (it doesn't appear when you're scanning through at 8x)
