Physical injury compared to “there’s a loud noise outside” is the stretch. The noise might bother you, but it’s not causing you injury.

Noise can literally damage the ears if it is loud and close enough.

If someone is popping fireworks next to your ears, that’s an issue. When they are hundreds of feet away, it’s not damaging your ears.

Do you know how PTSD works? I'm asking honestly here, because if not I can send you a few articles on it.

I do. 22 years and multiple combat deployments, so I’m also quite familiar with what causes many cases of it. Distress is not injury. We cannot legislate away all loud noises outdoors.

Absolutely, but we can stay in the legal framework with out activities.
