agree re immune system imo applies more broadly: brains and bodies are being subject to new and different environment this is stress, even if it's "not moving our body much" which sounds like "not stressful"
I suppose we could differentiate between healthy stress, which might be characterized as natural but in an unnaturally safe space (if such as possible), vs. unhealthy stress caused by modern conditions we are not adapted to. Choose your poison.
