For instance, standards committee meetings full of risk managers from
insurance companies who only pay for losses vs new construction costs,
and drywall manufacturers eager to help write the code :-)

Ditto on that.
Go burn some foam products in your closed garage, with you in it. Let us
know how that works out compared to breathing something like firewood smoke.
