The background noise may even be noticed by clients. I think the advantages of the open space can be accounted for in different ways that still allow folks to work with fewer distractions. I don't think any one type of work space is good for everyone. I think it would be great to have a choice. Finally, just because a space may be physically open, there can still be plenty of barriers to communications present in an office.

Many departments are there and they are separated by some insignificant divider. You are absolutely right that these types of environment creates healthy work culture and even modern science proved that depression, hypertension and many types of psychological ailments have been quenched.
