Actually, a good reason to give it some kind of amplified sound is so you can hear it coming. Quite a few people I know have mentioned they have concern about this very thing.

All EVs are required to make noise at or below 18.6 mph (30 km/h) so that pedestrians are aware that there is a moving car around them. There have been recalls for some EVs where the sound is deemed to not be loud enough. This is sometimes referred to as the "bell the cat" rule. If it's gonna make noise, may as well be a fun noise.
