There are alternatives under the fireworks umbrella that provide a visual spectacle and generate low or no noise.

I mean, that's the case with a lot of different things. I'm personally annoyed by all sorts of things other people do in public or on their property, and I could suggest alternatives they may like that wouldn't annoy me as much, but I don't feel that's the right thing to do. Provided they are following local laws and aren't breaking any ordinances, I can be annoyed without believing their rights should be revoked.

The real solution here is every town needs it's own massive fireworks display and no one buy their own.

Yeah, hard pass. Unless everyone could see it from their own homes, which seems impossible, it isn't quite the same. I definitely would not want to attend some massive gathering of people just to watch fireworks go off unless I was there for some other purpose before that. There's a certain sort of enjoyment provided by having your own show at home. I haven't done my own fireworks since I was in my teens, but those are some great memories with just me and a small group of friends and family.
