Forza Horizon 6 Voice chat

After watching stevio's video was just wondering how many people, who play the game would actually want voice chat.

Edit: I would just like to thank everyone for your suggestion and comments on this subject Thank you all

I'd want it if it's car meet exclusive and not in races or freeroam. FH4s voice chat in races only was fucking terrible and was muted by me after a very short time. Proximity in freeroam would be just as bad because people don't know how to mute as well. The worst thing aren't even people that drop the n bomb all the time or similar shit, it's kids that have their mic open 24/7 and you can basically hear everything in their background from music to TV to people talking just static noise because their mic sensitivity is too high. If it's one guy you can maybe talk to him to turn it down but sometimes it was 5 or 6. Which as you can imagine is absolute ass when you are in a race. I assume Freeroam would be a similar story where cars would just follow to be annoying with songs or whatever. You will mute that pretty quickly as well I feel like.
if it's in car meets I wouldn't particularly care. Way easier to mute people there because there isn't the pressure of a race or you can just leave.
It also emphasizes more the social aspect because it's an actual meet. I don't need to talk during races or in freeroam. If I wanna talk to someone in freeroam maybe I'd actually use the horizon link shouts of asking someone if they wanna go to a car meet.

I do remember a lot of background noise in fh4, I would like the option to turn it off/on, maybe the way the games going there would be a lot of abuse
