Which consequence results when improperly managed naphthalite supplies interact within early Byzantine Greek Fire infrastructure?

💡 Explanation

Unmanaged naphthalite increases volatile vapor concentrations. Therefore, uncontrolled pressurized deflagration ensues due to low flash point and autoignition under compression, rather than flame reduction because excess fuel favors rapid combustion via pressure.
