Which risk increases when components degrade during Byzantine Greek fire preparation?

💡 Explanation

Unintentional heating of the mixture leads to amplified, and increasingly-violent exothermic reactions, because a runaway reaction from unstable ingredient ratios overcomes any moderating factors, therefore the mixture has potential instability, rather than gradual power loss due to component surface inefficiencies..
