That'd be deionized water, I think...

Nope, distilled water has nothing, no minerals or anything else, including ions. Deionized water is also not the best for consumption.

But distilled is perfectly safe to drink… it just tastes weird from the lack of minerals and other stuff.

You will get water poisoning much faster with distilled water. Some is fine. A lot at once will kill you.

Only if you’re doing EXCESSIVE exercising, and if you are not having electrolyte replacements that’s just negligence.

A lot of tap water will kill you too, your article doesn’t say the difference in the amount.
