I am in the process of researching folic acid vs methylfolate.
I'll give you the link that karsten sent me about how folic acid may interfere with folate activation and use of methylfolate, esp at the blood brain barrier.
I believe the blood work that most labs do does not differentiate between the two. So at this point I am unsure if people reporting
"good" folate levels, really reflect folate and not both folic acid and methylfolate mixed. This is a long article and uses words like "may, could, possibly" quite a bit.

Most of the people who come here with test results typically show normal or high folate in testing. But actually we don't know which folates are being tested.
See what happens in the future with your D that you posted. That is the only way to know.
