I do notice kerning but then I've been a bit of a typography geek for decades. What is that phrase?, Once you've seen it, you can't unsee it? Notice the spacing in the upper lines of the kerning for a walrus image compared to the bottom two line.
Sometimes it's better to let people enjoy their ignorance... You've now gone and cursed people who were lucky enough to not notice!
