I did this to give myself the option to do yard work when others are still getting up or just sitting down for the evening. I didn't want to be "that person" running gas equipment during those hours.

I understand your concern about noise -- it bothers me, but there is little to do about it. I'm trying to do my part, though.
That is very empathetic and if universally followed, would be the solution to this problem. Some people won't be able to cut their own grass, but if all the "professionals" adopted your methods, TV Land would be a better and happier and SAFER place.
