Alarm sound missing after iPhone iOS 17 update

I used to use the actual alarm sound listed under the classic sounds for when I set my alarm. I can't find where it's an option in the clock settings anymore. I have a severe hearing loss and it's the only sound I can hear. I've had to go back to using my vibrating alarm clock that goes under my pillow, which can give me challenges with my neck. Is there any way to get this sound option back?

No one participating here in this user-to-user forum is going to lose customers because of this. Apple doesn't read here for feedback or suggestions. You can, however, let them know your thoughts here:

I would note that I am running iOS 17.4 and I have the "Alarm" tone under "Classic". You'll find the Classic option all the way at the bottom of the Sound list in the Alarm clock.
