Turns out: pyridoxine competes with the active form of the coenzyme (PLP), so if there is a ton of it, the enzymes that depend on PLP won't work.
Meaning you get a deficiency-like syndrome from overdose.
Biology is silly.

It is this ⬇️ inactive, pyridoxine, form of B6 that can cause neuropathy.
The active, pyridoxal-5-phosphate (P5P) form doesn’t seem to be toxic.
Inactive pyridoxine blocks B6 metabolism when high in blood, mimicking B6 deficiency.

Biology is anything but straightforward, and side effects can always occur in individuals even when they’re not supposed to in most people.
But I’d strongly avoid taking pyridoxine.
