Relatedly, iirc, this effect would be more noticeable in smaller spinners than in larger ones? Which is one reason people might disprefer smaller ones. Would it be a significant difference? I’m not sure, but if so, jogging would be a bit difficult, either it would quickly become too easy (and then dangerous, once the levitation kicks in) when you’re running down-spin, or it would become exhausting when you’re running up-spin.
A space where people can’t (or wont) jog isn’t ideal for human health.
I guess since it sounds like they’re going to be about a km long and 20 stories deep there’ll be enough room for a nice running track with minimal upspin/downspin sections.
If this was the setup I would bet on “hard man” fitness people swearing that running with the spin to run in a little more than earth normal gravity was great for building strength and endurance and some doctor somewhere would be warning people that the fad may not be good for your long term health.

Running parallel to the spin axis would be fine, though.
