As someone who knows apparently a lot about the media spectacle around Charla Nash's attack. One of the things that happened was that her pre surgery face was shown on the Oprah Winfrey show. Oprah's interview is largely commended. But the fact remains that her face became a shock image. People would clip that part so you could skip the humanity element and just see her "weird gross face".
In Nope Mary Jo's face is kept behind a veil. We only get a "good look" at her face when JJ starts rolling in. The main "face" we see is of herself pre attack displayed prominently on her sweatshirt. A reminder that she not only didn't always look like she does now, but was previously considered Beautiful by Hollywood standards.
She was obviously not just a child actress but also probably among the first generation of "tween stars". Which meant that there was A LOT of focus on her looks at an age where kids are generally very vulnerable about their appearance. To go from being one of The Pretty People in the country if not the world to "hideously disfigured" was probably just as psychologically damaging as the attack itself.
Nope did a great job of NOT using Mary Jo's face for shock value, you saw little glimpses of the reality behind the veil, then the feeding started and the veil lifted and suddenly the truth was undeniable.
There's also a meta element of how we as the audience are likely to spend every shot on her ignoring the sweatshirt and desperately trying to peak at her face Now. We know it's wrong, but we still want to know. Her entire appearance is a metaphor for how the public treats retired child stars. We see her and are mainly shown her child self, but there are glimpses that remind you she's no longer that child.

I like how the original scene was a so-called “trained” animal freaking out and attacking on set, and meanwhile the non-CGI’d version gives off the vibe of a human actor having a psychotic break during the filming of an episode.

I don't know why I didn't notice before because I LOVED the movie and still do (or maybe I just forgot), but in Nope after Gordy attacked the family, he genuinely didn't know what happened after he calmed down
--that part I already partially got, but what I for some reason DIDN'T look up was that what he signed to Jupe was "What happened family?"
JUST--
HE DIDN'T REALIZE WHAT HE DID

Backstage shenanigans
(and before you ask: yes you can hit someone in the face by launching a shoe at them with your foot. I speak from personal experience) (also it is a fun game)

One of my favorite things from Nope was that Jupe (while talking about the Gordy's Home incident) said "every time we would mention the jungle he would snap" because that wasn't true, meaning he doesn't even remember what happened in its entirety. It was so traumatic for him that he has gaps in his memory, and then here he is all this time later, talking about how great the SNL sketch is and how fascinating the event was.
Plus: he watched Mary Jo nearly die, and he was the one that ended up killing her.

Something something 6:13 is an inversion of 3:16 which is the chapter and verse of "for God so loved the world, that he gave his only son. That whosoever believes in him shall not die but have everlasting life". Which is a verse about God's Greatest Miracle Jesus Christ. But also given the assumption that heaven is "up" instead of a benevolent omniscient being in the sky they are dealing with an aggressive predator who's motivations are far more simple than people like Jupe would prefer.

I haven't seen anyone mention this, but I can't be the only one who thought the shoe standing during the Gordy's Home scene was representative of Jupe "waiting for the other shoe to drop." Aka waiting for Gordy to attack him, but then he doesn't. And the shoe never drops.
