in no way
plugs do shut out surrounding noise, but they do so by completely sealing off your ear canal, which leads to higher temperatures and ear wax clogging in the canal because. the more worrying aspect of it is that, since your ear canal is shut off completely
all the noise goes directly down your ear canal. the sound quality sucks, there's no soundscape plus it's a terrible strain on your ear drum that all that noise is going directly to it. plugs are
terrible for your ears, trust me.
