And a few more comments-on-comments...

Chlorine bleach:
Is it bleach + toilet cleaners (the acid them) that generates HCN(?)
cyanide gas (or is it chlorine?), hence the warnings not to do it on the
containers. If so prob worth restating it here (as well as under
limescale).

They generate chlorine gas. "Cyanide" is an urban myth.

Its a fair cop, I stand corrected. Quite glad its not true.
