Interesting and probably true sadly.
One thing you could try is rolling a tiny piece of blue-tac or plasticine or equivalent between your thumb and forefinger. If the piece is small enough you can play with it pretty much unnoticed.
In meetings I tend to make notes as a means of fidgeting without it being obvious, except I usually end up doing huge doodles that people comment on….not good in job interviews though!
