"Background noise" is not a concise enough category to give a consistent answer for either scenario. Different white noises stroke the CNS differently depending on current state of arousal, time of day, body temperature, and more. If I'm irritated, clicking noises make me crave death. If I'm anxious and meditate to solve it, clicking noises can help.

Like drugs, there's a time and place for all but 1 or 2 of them. The ceiling fan click is never a good sound.
