Also just to add to the torture of these conversations … the inside of your lungs also have a certain ‘scent’ or ‘aroma’ to it. It’s very subtle and wouldn’t be noticeable to anyone else except for yourself because the exhaled air is coming straight out of your lungs and right past your nostrils and all its receptors. Your receptors can sense it but your brain automatically ignores it and you never notice.
The same goes for your vision … you have a natural blind spot in the center of your vision … the edges are not crisp and clean, you can only focus on about 10 percent of what you actually see in front of you, the rest is just blurry … your brain just automatically processes your entire vision and autogenerates a perceived image that makes us believe that we have crystal clear vision through our entire field of view.
Same goes with hearing … just about every person has a tiny bit of tinnitus, ringing of the ears but your brain just automatically processes it all out to make you think that you have crystal clear hearing.
When you think about it … all our senses are pretty imperfect and there is a lot of interference and nonsense data that our brain processes out to make us believe that we have perfect or near perfect vision, hearing and sense of smell.
It’s actually normal.
Your nostrils cycle between like this so that the one can take a break from the air flow and mitigate drying out.

Hey that’s just part of becoming aware you’re a sentient being stuck in a weird meat vessel that’s just full of undebugged closed source code blobs.
If you’re slightly congested, it sucks more.
If you think about it too much about your breathing, it sucks.
Otherwise it’s fine.

Not only does it help from drying out, but it helps with smell too; some things are better detected with a slower airflow
Yep, there’s a reason our noses didn’t simply evolve into a singular hole in the middle of our faces
