As far as I understand (and do correct me if I’ve got it wrong), your eyes still know they are looking at very small and very rapidly blinking lights in close proximity and in a flat array, which is why it mostly feels like uncanny valley in regards to that exact experience, and why software enhancement/approximation of the effect could be beneficial.

Delayed response but if you're talking about the general experience of VR being an uncanny valley experience then no, I don't agree. It's very common for people who use VR to say that they forgot for a moment that it wasn't real.
