I am very perplexed.
I cannot for the life of me understand why nobody, myself included, has ever, in all the times this issue has been discussed, considered what "combustible" means. If someone has, I've missed it. And everyone, myself included, has certainly missed a crucial part of the definition whenever they've said that nothing is non-combustible.
So....
Does a material which self-extinguishes burn easily?

So....
