i have never heard a fire alarm actually correspond to a dangerous fire. it's always some bullshit like a drill (i know how to follow exit signs i don't need a pop quiz) or burnt food (which shouldn't trigger a full building alarm). at some point we have to realize that alarm fatigue is the strongest force in fire safety today and people just aren't going to evacuate on an alarm if they happen constantly. also my ears hurt, they don't need to be so damn loud for me to know to leave an area
