I don't know man. Feels like the whole damn field of medicine does just that. It fixes body problems with (medical) technology.
I would not at all be surprised if later we find a certain framerate or fov reduces motion sickness. Or maybe there's some device that will go over our ears to trick our equilibrium from getting confused. Or maybe really good head tracking fixes it...
I think it's more likely than not that we do "tech" our way out of it - just in some unforeseen way.
Only one way to find out, I guess. But still, a lot of this stuff comes from the high end that eventually trickles down, and I've never heard any discoveries that claim to have solved the problem. You'd think that since the military would be all over this tech, their limitless budgets would have stated they have sickness-free headsets. But in all these years, nothing.
