Perhaps because they are afraid to become their noses such as pinocchio nose.

This is because of an idiom in English. When you get something exactly correct, you get it "right on the nose." So when you point to your nose, it means the same thing.

I have no idea what you are talking about. I was born and raised in the USA and still live here today and never once have I touched my nose when I meant yes. I am very confused as to where you heard this happened in America.
