hidden 'friends list' visible with public notes???

I have my 'friends list' set to be only viewable by my current friends. I want to keep others on pownce that I may have issues with from seeing my list.

That works out fine until I realized that anytime I post a public note, anyone who clicks on it to read it, will find my 'friends list' to the side of the note.

With that being the case, I'm assuming I can't really hide my list from anyone.
