You are assuming everyone has the same level of hearing. There is people with hearing loss around you without you even noticing. For those people an alarm might be just "right", not too loud.

I have about 40% of my sound capacity taken up by tinnitus, constant "beeeeeeeeep" sound , since I was born, thus I'm still wondering.

Most of the time I have hard time understanding what people around me say, using normal voice. I get lots of feedback that I'm "yelling". But every single loud thing , is clear to me.
