As a user you will never notice the distortions - not even in Live-View mode. The necessary corrections are all applied under the hood.
The criticism is basically that these corrections are lossy regarding border/corner resolution due to the necessary amount of image stretching and interpolation.

Would you notice with 1080p video while it's playing a 60inch television? do all micro four thirds cameras correct for distortion on the fly for video?
I certainly notice the perspective difference between my 17-40mm when I correct for distortion and when I don't and the 12-35 is 2% more extreme than that. How could you shoot landscape video at 12mm on a GH3, how could you not notice 6-7% with buildings in the frame.(in video on a display.) Your lines aren't going to be straight.
