It's called the uncanny VALLEY precisely because it's a sharp drop in the curve the more realistic something is.

It shows that people are more fond of a symbolic representation of a human being than than an imperfect replica.

In the context of porn, people will more easily accept symbol-drawn shit as sexy than more realistic art that is in the "valley", before suddenly regaining appreciation for perfect realism.

This is a very cartoonish face, and obviously not a photo. The uncanny valley occurs only when something becomes realistic enough so as you are in doubt whether the model is real or not. Humans are programmed to very easily be able to recognise the small intricacies in other faces.
