I can imagine that exercising with a hangover would suck, but I don't know how it's dangerous....

Hangovers cause severe dehydration. It's an extreme case, but a British soldier died last year from a combination of a severe hangover and punitive exercise. Just fell over on the running track and didn't get back up.
Ok, but there's a big difference between "severe hangover and punitive exercise" and "ow I've got a headache, I'll still do at least a mile this morning".
Yes, and there's a difference between dying and causing yourself to feel shitty for a few days :-P
By your logic, I should also avoid drinking water, as it's possible to die from water intoxication.
