The mixture of tiny particles of sawdust and vapors (from lacquer and other finishing products) can accumulate within the volume of the shop rather quickly when working on a project. The particles in the space at a high enough concentration can effect respiratory function because you're inhaling sawdust, or toxic vapors, which can also effect coherence.
Another, just as significant reason to properly ventilate a woodworking shop would be that when sawdust particles and flammable vapors reach a high enough concentration, the possibility of spontaneous combustion of those particles becomes very likely. A simple spark from a woodworking machine could ignite and travel almost instantaneously particle to particle engulfing the shop.
