No, I never said I "liked fret noise". What I said was this:

"I like the edge frets can provide, but that doesn't mean (using the set-up I use) that I have to contend with "fret noise" when I don't want it". There is a difference. Make sense?

"Growl" can mean different things to different players. The "edge" description I'm using is more of a biting-metallic-bright sound ("edge") that frets can produce when played for that purpose. I can't think of a better way to clarify this at the moment. BUT, if that makes sense to you and you call that "growl", then "growl" it is.
