Me and some of my acquitances and friends are not ignoring it. It wouldn't make sense to ignore it, if you ask me: it's just too big of a deal and it's the first thing we get slapped in the face with during the storyline missions.
You do pose an interesting problem, though. The Warriors of Light lived in Eorzea, so their stuff should be still around. I think it's safe to assume that whatever spell caused the amnesia and shoved the Warriors of Light into the future also erased all mention of them. So people who knew them just forgot completely about them, ledgers and other written media that coul have had their names just don't have them anymore...etcetera. You get the idea. Kind of a cosmical retcon.
It poses an interesting dilemma on the matter of families. Would a mother remember that she had a daughter, if that daughter was a Warrior of Light? Maybe she would remember having a daughter, but couldn't really recall her features, or how she looked or her name. It's an interesting thing to ponder about.
