> all the noise

I'm sure it takes some getting used to, if you're used to something more minimalistic, but it isn't noise to me. It's a persistent indicator of where you are, and is usually easily ignored.

The benefit of it for me is that I always have "where am I, where are files in relation to here" in the back of my mind. While switching terminals, if what's in my mind doesn't match the prompt it's really jarring and hard stops me from doing something stupid on the wrong system or directory or as the wrong user.
