The lower pitch of a vuvuzela is much less intrusive when you're trying to listen to the commentary. And at least the loudness of a vuvuzela is limited by the strength of the blower's own lungs.
Or the combined sound of the vuvuzelas are anyway. And they don't stop. Players can't hear each other on the pitch.
Apparently they add to the atmosphere if you're actually there, so it's kind of understandable, but through the television it's just irritating.

They're a zillion times better than those high-pitched pressure canister horns.

I like them, it makes the South African World Cup a South African World Cup rather than generic

My only problem with them is that the sound of the crowd never really changes.
