That's the only issue, but as long as you keep gem close and safe there is no problem. After all you still feel everything the same way, you are hungry, you feel the touch... nothing much changed except that you can never seperate with your gem.
At least no one ever noticed the change unless they were told or went through it like this.

You're not wrong in saying that the changes aren't as drastic as they are made out to be (as you said, they never noticed until the truth was thrown in their faces). But even so the changes would have a severe effect on people, particularly in leaving them with the feeling that they're now completely different from other humans (which they are) and are somewhat less human for it (which they are). Take Kyoko for example; since she lived only for herself and didn't care about others the changes were, while annoying since they were kept from her, not a big deal.
For somebody like Sayaka, who made her wish for the sake of a loved one, the realization that she was (in her eyes) inhuman to him would be devastating. So yes they overplayed the negative aspects of it, but only in the sense that overplaying them like that is a perfectly reasonable thing to do.
