yeah, that was kind of off-putting, but then again it was 2010 and everyone on that forum was basically against him, with very few willing to matching up studies or really be open to the conversation... kind of annoying for such a supposedly open-minded place.
Tobacco is normally alkaline and absorbed through the mucosa, but when made acidic is instead absorbed through the lungs. Pipe, dip, snuss, and cigar are alkaline vs cigarettes.
Traditionally I've read the same; native americans didn't inhale, but instead, the smoke was allowed to "drift up to the creator".
In this manner more smoking can be done, and perhaps in the process of utilizing so much amongst many people, the humidity within a Teepee would eventually mix with the carbon monoxide raining it down onto the ground instead of being inhaled, while the carbon would leave through the top of the teepee, leaving a temporary carbon dioxide dense environment for people to immerse themselves in.
Hypothetically
