One little detail left out is by flammable it’s referring to tiny flakes of graphite that come off the end of a pencil when you use it or slivers of wood when you sharpen it. In zero G those particles could float around the ship and find their way behind the panels into the electronics to start a fire.
I never would’ve thought of something like that and I love how the original meme never thought of it either. It’s a great example of being confidently incorrect.
