yep, that is an individual choice. I thought the overlays are clear, so it 
would not draw attention from anyone.
I suppose it would benefit the user in locating the buttons as well.

I don't think that the braille overlays get in the way, and for furthermore
they don't make you look blind.  I would say that it is the individuals
choice if he or she wants to use it.  Also, if one fills that something
makes them look blind then they are not yet ready to except their blindness.
