With modern diet, vegan or otherwise, it’s just good sense to take a multivitamin everyday. The difference between the daily dose and the deadly dose is night and day, so it can’t harm.
While your warning is fair, the product in the article you linked has more than 10 times the vitamin B6 in a single dose than any of the four most common daily mulitivitamin supplements I’ve used.
its kinda funny but I was doing this rabbit hole search to see if I could identify a minimum of foods that are shelf stable and have everything you need. omega3’s and vitamin C become sorta hard without just using a supplement and if your doing vitamin C supplement you might as well do a multivatamin which covers a lot of bases and lets you have just a few other things.

Right. It’s also cheaper to get a multivitamin than to have a dozen different pills. Also easier to swallow for most without the skill.
