All first hand accounts that I have read on this matter state that other planes could not be heard. This is a good indicator that the vast majority could hear nothing. I propose that we modell the environment after the most common pilot and not after some individuals with superpowers ...

No you read me wrong. I have no idea if you should hear another AC only that some people can hear things when others cannot.
My personal experience (with sound not ww2 AC)is working in a mineral sands processing plant. Wearing hearing protectors in deafening parts of the plant.You some times can't hear the bloke standing next to you but you can still hear other parts of the plant. A slipping v-belt,a front end loader going by or the PA system and sirens.
