Electric cars have to make noise on purpose because otherwise it would be a silent car. And most of these noises are are weird futuristic WEEEE-00000 UFO sounds. Therefore I posit that we should be able to change the noises our electric cars make

The sound from a car is mostly tire noise.

    True but that's not relevant.

    So we need noisemakers on gas and EV cars.

    Yes because drivers of EVs hit pedestrians and this helps save lives.

    If cars (EV and gas) are travelling at road speed, tires are the loudest sound. If cars (EV and gas) are traveling at very reduced speed, neither make a sound. I have no idea what you are talking about.

    The engine and everything in an ICE car make sound at reduced speed. It's not the loudest on new cars but its still like 40db. I have no idea what you are talking about.
