I had to boot up my cab to check this out. Yes I see the letters.. if I put my face right up to them. I never noticed them before and I don't see how they could be distracting.

That's weird and potentially annoying. I wonder if it's just some mold identification for manufacturing purposes. I'm sure that most folks wouldn't notice, but once you did it probably sticks out like a sore thumb eh?

you could use something like this:

in your drill and grind off the letter in each one...

They are just being helpful for people still trying to find the elusive "O" and "K" buttons.  You may need to order more.
