I take it you are in the second group. It's all about different manufacturers make them differently and what you were previously use to on your bike.
I'm neither nor. The freehub on my Dahon Mu is markedly louder than the ones on my other bikes, but what really made it stand out to me is just how quiet the 1990s freehub on my old Raleigh is in comparison. I've ridden behind a few people with late-model bikes whose freehubs I could hear from 50 feet away and there seems to be more and more of them.
