If anyone notices.

Yeah, right, ATC pays no attention to whether or not an IFR aircraft
is where it is supposed to be.

More to the point, is there anywhere in the US where you would get
assigned an altitude out of range of a VOR if you've filed VOR to VOR?
The lateral range is the question. I don't know if ATC verifies that all VORs
mentioned on the flight plan are in range when they should be.

When IFR you are going to be assigned an altitude that will NOT be
3000 feet AGL.

If you file VOR to VOR, the route has probably been flown many thousands
of times for decades. If there were a problem with the route/altitude,
someone would have noticed decades ago.

I have often been assigned altitudes that were less than 3000 agl
within 30 miles of my destination.
I think you must be confusing filing VOR to VOR on an airway with
filing VOR to VOR not on an airway.
