Your nostril length is absolutely relevant. Maybe not by the time it gets to your lungs, but it for sure causes problems for the sensitive tissues inside the nose.
"Such a nose is unsuited for cold countries as it permits masses of cold air to flood the air passages and irritate the lining membrane, so that the nose must be large and have much warming surface, and the nostrils therefore are slender slits to admit air in thin ribbons easily warmed."
