You put the wrong thing in and they take away all functionality.

I, once again, am forced to ask…when do we start burning things?

When will you start burning things? What - specifically - would it take?

I think that basically would be the same answer as your question.

Edit:. Sorry, looks like you probably had this conversation already. Half of the comments look deleted on my end .
