"Eating the poison itself, counterintuitively, is also perfectly safe, due to the way the game handles poisons." This could make more sense than it seems. The poison causes necrotosis, therefore would require to be in the muscle tissue or bloodstream. The dwarven digestive system could contain an acid strong enough to dissolve the poison, or the mucous lining of the stomach and digestive tract could be strong enough to repel the poison. And yes.

Since we're being pedantic, why not point out that even though it makes a certain amount of sense, once thought about, the fact that "eating the poison... is perfectly safe" is still counterintuitive, as one's intuition would be to keep it out of contact with one's critters entirely.
