Agreed. This activity is just presented because of the interest in fire. If you needed to start this "survival fire" with a lighter or other flame source, then the chip itself is unnecessary.

Also, the term "pyro" is used incorrectly in this producer's playlist description. Pyromania is a disorder with clinical definition. Generally, pyromaniacs start fires to induce euphoria. They often fixate on institutions of fire control like fire stations and firefighters.
