The volume of her music is well within what is allowed by the regulations or social norms. Yet the neighbor is still complaining and wants her to turn it down, claiming that she (the neighbor) is unusually sensitive to noise due to some kind of ear or mental condition.

Your response to a neighbor's playing music "well within what is allowed by the regulations or social norms", but which caused you discomfort, was to complain to them?

How does this comment in any way address NancyLebovitz's?

I'm asking for a clarification from her, on what happened to her, and whether it matched the given hypothetical scenario.

If she wants me to address any particular issue, I'd be happy to, but I didn't see her requesting that her comment be addressed by me.

She commented that one of your proposed solutions (earplugs) might not work, citing personal experience as evidence for her claim. In that context, asking if her situation matched the hypothetical exactly is a non-sequitur.

Perhaps to you.

If you have your own point to make, feel free to do so.
