Obviously, I cannot state, with certainty, the chances of anything
bursting into flame. Nor can you. Conversely, you cannot state, with
certainty, that something will "never" burst into flame.
It's not a question of flammability but of precision in meaning.

Apparently, bonehead, you think that the laws of physics are just
suggestions. There are all sorts of certainties. Water not bursting
into flame in your shop is one of them.

If you don't get the connection of that illustration to woodworking
and the myth of the exploding home shop dust collection system, then
you are apparently just skimming the posts to find something to argue
about.
