I enjoy reading topics like this. Most people wouldn't know or care if a game is 30 or 60.
In my experience gaming on PC, when you tweak your graphics settings and the framerate changes in that range, THEN you notice ("oh it's much smoother now").
In my experience gaming on console (where you can't make such tweaks), you don't notice (except in the examples where it starts to chug, as you said).
So IMO it's of course perceptible, but it's rarely ACTUALLY problematic in practice, and it's easiest to notice when you can actually change back and forth or the framerate varies back and forth (poor optimization, etc). In other words, when you're rolling along at 30fps its usually just fine (under 30 things do start to perceptibly "chug"). It's like the 900p vs 1080p stuff - if you have the two images side by side and can squint at them... sure, you can find the differences. But when it's by itself... eh. Just play the game
