Not sure I understand your criticism.

Yes, bike bells are for pedestrians to hear.

Problem: Pedestrians today wear ANC noise cancelling, thus being unable to hear approaching bikes' bells.

Skoda: We made a bell with a frequency usually not cancelled by ANC, so these pedestrians still hear it.

Sounds reasonable to me.
