But the start and stopbits... don't they interfere with the desired bit stream? Also, the idle state for a NeoPixel data line is a low voltage, while the idle state for a serial line is a high voltage.

The UART output can be inverted and you just factor the start and stop bits into the "calculation" for the waveform.
