That is certainly true.

What I might do is to mount some curtains over the panes on net curtain
wire. Our bedrooms come straight onto this hall anyway so the privacy
would be good (as well as the obscured glass).

In summer I would leave the bottom curtain "drawn" over the glass which
will cut down on the sun's heat coming in a bit and would obscure the
letters a bit.
