Survivor(star)ship bias: There are only episodes about minor issues with the inertial dampeners because major issues with the system would be very short and messy, and not make for good archival training footage for cadets or whatever the Watsonian reason for our Doyalist TV show may be.
@JungleJim
There is this scene in the Expanse, when a ship suddenly slows down.
A very messy scene.
@Thorry84
I really have to watch this show, I keep hearing great things
@JungleJim
It's not Star Trek, but in my opinion, the best SF series since DS9.
I don't say "better", because they are set in different subgenres, so at some point comparison fails.
Let's put it like this: I am as much a fan of one as I am of the other.
I watched most of the first episode but had to leave the couch for real world reasons (tragedy). So far it's fantastic! Verymuch not Star Trek which is a nice change and unusual for me. Thanks for the recommendation!
@JungleJim
I am so sorry for the tragedy that happened to you. I hope, you have people to be with you.

I'm glad, you liked my recommendation. Many people don't get hooked until the 4th episode or so, so, if you're not entirely convinced, give it some time.
(remember the 1st season of TNG?)
You're very kind! To be clear, the tragedy was leaving the couch and TV. I'm back now.
Trek might not really go for gore often, but an episode where you see the aftermath wouldn't go amiss
