Just been deutsched in the ICE for... typing too loudly
And to those going “different people perceive sound differently”. Sure. I know.
But different people solve problems differently too. Train was max 10% full. Perhaps if you’re annoyed by something like typing, you move, instead of asking *me* to move (what the passenger did).

Am I weird in that I often move to other seats in trains? So as to be further from passengers I find annoying? (And I mean really annoying. Not just people typing.)
But this is the essence of to be deutsched. It’s often more to prove your righteousness than actually solve a problem.
I recall the supreme example. I was on a bike tour in Berlin. Our group had stopped, the guide was explaining something. Instead of asking 1 of the group to move, 2 grumpy passers by walked off the path, round the group, to the guide - just to make their point.
