I thought there was some governmental requirement that an EV or Hybrid had to make noise if some kind when the vehicle was in motion, externally, while running electrically. Someone please correct me if I understood that incorrectly.

That's an external noise. OP is asking about internal noise like some manufacturer's do to enhance the sound of the engine.
whats that sound like?

Usually reserved for high performance cars. They spend a lot of money making these trucks quiet.

Appreciate the sound outside as the blind folks crossing streets can hear me coming. But I really don't want to hear anything inside. I'm sure it would drive my hearing aids crazy.

This is a thing? In California? Sounds absolutely horrible. I would hate that. Either way. Inside or out. What an awful idea.

Pretty common in hot hatches and other smaller performance oriented cars. Anything with a small engine that is supposed to be quick. Really doubt Ford bothers, and they probably would have mentioned it by now
