Don't believe you have much of a case for CO 2 poisoning.
It is CO that is the poison!!!

Apparently you never saw Apollo 13.

I think what he's trying to imply is that CO poisons, CO2 simply
displaces breathable air.

Carbon monoxide is poisonous.
Carbon dioxide is poisonous.

Indeed, the distinction you are trying to make doesn't apply,
since CO "simply displaces breathable air" in hemoglobin.

Both can eventually kill you, but in different ways.

Yes, by *poisoning* you.
