Experience tells me that a real object in my (real) face is going to be
uncomfortable to view.  Consider the effect of a child who asks you to look
at something while he holds it too close to your face.  Hard to look at, eh?!

...the mismatch, in viewing a stereo pair, between where your two eyes
are focused (on the images, which are always at the same optical distance
from your eyes), versus where your two eyes are fixated (varies with
whatever object you converge on in the strereo scene), is the only way
a "perfect, orthostereo" stereo pair differs from a scene directly
