I wasn’t able to replicate this, in safari highlighting a couple words or several hundred words both worked fine, the copy option was there and stayed there both times. I tried on a iPad mini and an iPhone SE

    I don’t have an answer but I would guess somewhere along the lines of a couple hours (we’re talking about the whole half sinus, not just the nostril). So it would be great if the body could adapt to a plugged nostril by not switching to it, the mechanism just doesn’t exist as the sinus are on autopilot.

    Cool note, it’s erectile tissue in the sinus that expands and contracts to make the automatic process work.

    Your body doesn’t want to override because it’s doing it to give half your sinuses a break and recover. If it just kept running on the unblocked one you’d quickly dry it out. Unfortunately the only override is manually switching to mouth breathing.
