I'm sure there's a good physics explanation but you have to have fuzzes set so that, in isolation, they sound way too loud. In a band mix the levels sound completely different.

This is a bit spammy -- but totally relevent -- I've got a Monkey FX Velvet Vervet octave fuzz FS [end spam]
But it's the same idea, octave to cut through and sheer bloody volume for when you have the octave off.

Ultimately, with regards to guitars, midrange = volume, which is why if you play a lot of high gain scooped stuff, you tend to need louder amps. Why does high gain make a difference? Because gain in essence = compression and compression is overall going to govern your voume. You do need to marry the two to make "the best" (imo) of some fuzzes.
FWIW - I rocked a Velvet Vervet for years and it was a rad fuzz. Loved it to bits and was gutted when I had to sell it. Great pedal.
