Ugh, as someone with dyslexia, it's nothing visual, so trying to visualize being dyslexic is an exercise in futility.
You know those "drunk" googles that distort your view? They certainly make it harder to walk, but they in no way make you feel drunk...
Try explaining someone what it feels like being on LSD... you can't.
Telling people that letters jump around is an easy way to dismiss people whit out having to do a lengthy and tiring explanation that likely wont be understood anyway.
I do appreciate the effort that went into this, and that people try to understand, but I don't think this particular experiment is helpful, because people will get the wrong idea about what dyslexia is.
Edit: Arzh is right in that I'm being a bit harsh/dramatic here, so I made some small changes.
