And yet you don't hear the same complaints about the elevated metros in Paris. Why is that and what can we learn from it?

The "noise" thing, possibly; that sounds more like a problem with the Brooklyn ones than elevated systems generally.
(I feel like Americans are okay with, or at least tolerate, noisier vehicles than would be tolerated elsewhere, though. Particularly with the common use of air brakes, but also the BART is, internally, probably the noisiest ground transport of any kind that I've ever been in.)
