I thought it was well established.
It's the discrepancy between input from your eyes and the balance organs in your ears. This is characteristic of some types of poisoning, so the body's response is to purge the stomach in case it was something you swallowed.

Seasickness has a similar mechanism, IIRC.

Solution: responsiveness to your head movements has to be prioritised over absolutely everything else, including polygon count, when representing a world you're navigating. It has to be immediate and precise, in terms of direction, speed and distance.

If it's just showing a spreadsheet straight in front of you regardless of the direction you're looking in, this issue is irrelevant. Your reaction to the spreadsheet itself would be the same if it were on an external monitor :)
