The safety switch was around in RMF's and RSZA's day. And unless
neither ever needed their stoves repaired, they knew about it. To
me it sounds like this "expert" misled RSYNQ and RCQ, both about the
nature of the design, and that it's a new thing not answered by their
predecessors. (Unsurprising, as RYR of Zomet says the same, although a
little more politically sensitively.)

:-)BBii!
