Have they discovered a link between people with big noses and less motion sickness? Imo these are the more important questions that will drive humanity forward

You can always see your own nose BTW, your brain just usually excludes it from what you actively notice.

Yes although I’m hypothesising large nose peoples brains will be doing this with a larger area hence the greater effects against motion sickness. It could lead to novel treatments for motion sickness like wearing a big nose while riding on a bus.
