I have a quest 2, and have put it at 120hz. I still get motion sick. It’s not just frame rate. Movement in real life involves more inputs than just eyes.. you feel it in your vestibular system for example. Here we have a disconnect between motion in the eyes and the rest of your body. And for many, such as myself, that results in motion sickness.

Do I understand correct that you don't get motion sickness if standing still but looking around—when there is no disconnect in motion? This is the use case for productivity apps.
In my understanding it is extremely rare to experience VR motion sickness if the motion in VR matches the motion in IRL.

That is usually the case. But what have I really gained? Unless what I’m doing is inherently 3D, I’m getting a lower resolution 2D experience blocking out my actual world (including things like my water glass, keyboard, mouse, dog, papers on desk, etc) while getting my eyes blasted with artificial light with a heavy thing strapped to my head.
