True, I understand this well.
Less O2 because of less pressure, less of other gasses because of less pressure. Less 02 is what is "noticed" along with perhaps a slight adjustment in the nasal cavity.

There are other problems you may notice due to long exposure at high altitudes directly related to lower gas pressure but I really am interested in my original questions and would like to get back on topic.
