I suppose the core of my question is just wondering what the shape of the g-dose response curve is. 1g is nominal. 0g has significant long-term problems, even with countermeasures like daily exercise.
Is the physiologic response between the two extremes linear? My intuition says no, but I don't have real data to check.
