You've defined it via the general mismatch in a good way. Sea sickness is your eyes saying, "I'm not moving", but your inner ear saying, "Oh yes we are". VR sickness is your eyes saying, "We are moving" and your inner ear saying, "No we're not"

I wonder whether having something to blow air on you in particular directions as you move in VR might help with that, then?

That shouldn't be too hard to try out. A few fans controlled by the motion in the game. Sounds worth a shot.

That would be really, really nifty.
