Yeah, that's right. Look at the way they avoid feeders once the corn is gone. The 5/8" hole is as small as I'll go. They still have to work for their supper. 
ive heard that even if there no holes and they hear it they will play with it for a long amount of time. thats what ive herd. have you heard anything like that
Only if in the recent past they have had one that fed them corn. They are not the brightest animal on the block but if they play with the pipe for a little bit and there is no corn they will move on.
Deer are the same way, they will play with the pipe as long as they get corn and then move on. Another method is to use 2 liter soda pop bottles with the lid off. The problem with the plastic bottles is they are hard to tie onto so they don't become trash.
yea i hunted a freinds stand one time and all around his blind he had milk gallons tie with rope to a tree, with a little hole at the bottom of the gallon suspened from the tree, every year he would have to put up new ones becuase they become brittle
