As an LED is a go/no-go device, flicker is indicative of a condition outside the emitter. Full stop.

I love it when people say "full stop" like that makes 'em right.
So, you've never seen a thermal intermittent...

Unlikely, maybe. Full Stop, not so much.


A thermal intermittent would not apply to the emitter. It would very much apply to the driver, socket, contacts, whatever. I have seen my fair share, naturally - and none of them were an emitter fault.
