I think there is only so much a manufacture could do. The rattle box interior was an effort to reduce weight and cost, and the motor isn't bad for a Subaru collaboration. It could have been worse with just using direct injection or something, so that we would have been stuck trying to retrofit port injectors like other cars or trying to do expensive DI and DI pump upgrades.

Looks like Nissan has developed a solution for weight and noise.
