It grinds my gears when people call a big torch a flamethrower. A flame thrower spits burning liquid fuel onto things.

I wouldn’t mind so much if the front page of that military-oriented site didn’t have a picture of an actual flamethrower in action. Yeah, you’re not doing that with propane toys from Amazon.
