Highly skilled firefighters are the last line of defense against wildfires, but that line is fraying because the government decided long ago that they’re not worth very much.
Not discounting anything you wrote but the word fireproof.
We were never ever taught that word and were always trained that the burrito wrapper is an absolute last chance tool that only works if many specific (generally unrealistic) variables aligned. Like a site with terrain you can actually get a “seal”, no overhead debris risk, no/very low local ground fuels, etc. Further, it will not stand up to direct fire in any way at all.
I am not defending the use or equipping of these tools.
