This method was used for the first time in Alabama last week. For at least two minutes, Kenneth Eugene Smith appeared to shake and writhe on the gurney
What they were saying is, it’s that not enough time for the nitrogen to displace the co2 in their lungs for the peaceful part to happen. It’s not hypoxia that they die from its the suffocation.
The fact that you don’t understand displacement of lung (and bloodstream) gas content tells me you don’t have enough of a medical background to understand wtf you are talking about.
Even if that’s true, how long can you hold your breath? Under stress. 2min? Then you’ll breathe again, get rid of CO2 and you’re done.
Again, I’m not advocating for death penalty, but if you’re determined to kill someone, nitrogen is definitely one of the best ways.

CO2 isn’t “replaced”, it’s getting breathed away like in a normal atmosphere. The atmosphere is 70% nitrogen, it’s not like it’s a toxic gas.

The fact that you’re repeating the same words again and again tells me, you just read something you don’t quite understand and act like an expert now.
I’m not the one with the burden of proof to prove that it is painless.
