Actually an excess of CO2 can be a problem, it's just a problem at a
higher concentration than CO is. The IDLH (immediately dangerous to
life and health) limit for CO2 is 40,000 ppm whereas CO has an IDLH
of 1200 ppm

CO2 is regarded as a simple asphixiant, just like an excess of
nitrogen or any other inert gas.

You're exhibiting the same confusion....

? Have you tried a paper bag over the head
for CO2 enrichment?
