ENTER to skip & protagonist scale.

1.) Can you guys get rid of --or auto vanish it, like other games do-- the "ENTER to skip" hint on cinematic sequences? I like to take screenshots "all over", including during cut scenes, and this "hint" stays on once you press a single key. Every picture taken from cut scenes will have this intrusive "watermark" at the bottom right corner. Most other games that do this, at least set such on screen "hints" to auto vanish after a few seconds. You could add an option to the game settings (which already has many good game play related settings) where we could change it. ie: Always on, Never on, Auto fade after; 1/2/3/x seconds.

2.) Am I perhaps missing some lore/story where it may be explained if by design, or is the protagonist not to "scale" when against many/most things in the world? It isn't as much her height, by itself, rather, her overall "build" -- scale. Her body is/looks normal, in and of itself, but when against nigh anything (door, cars, building, fences, etc..), it looks as if she is shrunk -- like the characters in Grounded, where obviously they are.

I did, deliberately, skip a bunch of things before getting to the gameplay, so this may be by design. (It has to, surely, judging solely from the "fence" picture example, included via the below link.) Either way, and that's the thing, it still looks/feels weird, since the world she is "in", even at this start part is normal in all other ways. So this is not a Grounded-like situation. She should either be tiny, and everything else giant or somewhat "taller/bigger" to a specific scale -- but as is, some things are, including her vs many things, but not all.

Below is a large-ish (9Mb) picture collage that shows several examples of her scale issue. (One. taken from a cut scene also shows the first issue I have. as well. Though it also illustrates my "scale" issue: the door knob is huge and does not look right, her height vs the door, overall is not right - she looks tiny.)
