I have never ever encountered anyone that took it as anything other than a joke.

Congratulations on your award.

So why bother with the snarky reply then?
Maybe it might encourage people to stop turning non-issues into issues in the first place?
So you can in no way see how the phrase might make someone feel uncomfortable and that it might just be easier to use another phrase, which, OP already said they’d noted and are fine with doing? If it’s not an issue then phrase it differently.
