Smoke grenades, too, are “incendiary” in a sense. They generate their smoke by combustion, because storing the reagents as solids is much more volumetrically efficient than storing gas. Because gas is low-density. Duh.

It’s a tricky phrasing challenge, because in traditional use incendiary devices are designed explicitly to cause things to burn. It is not a side effect.

A stove is also incendiary. A furcase too. OMG! I’m living in a death trap!
