Is it like a rough inference of what’s being said based on mouth movements, or is it more precise somehow? Would it be a mistake to think you knew exactly what was said by reading lips (even if you were good at it)?

This, completely. I didn’t even know how much I depended on reading lips until everyone worth listening to was wearing a mask.
Yeah it really sucked, slightly muffled by the mask and no lips to read.
Same. My mind makes up random words to sounds all the time, so if I dont have context or lips to read, the sentences I hear people say are just wild.
I repeat things back to people wearing masks so that I can be sure that I understand them. It annoys some of them, but whatever
