I don’t think we do fire suppression because we are too dumb to understand that unburned materials will build up. We do it because people live everywhere and it is challenging legally to tell people to evacuate their homes because we need to do a controlled burn.

No historically we were too dumb. Prescribed burns were a “revolution” in fire management (1995 in the US)
