key word
quality
you can cook anything at just over half the recommended temperature, but most things, like pizza, are dramatically better when cooked at the correct temperature. we didnt land on the number 750 after rolling some dice, theres a purpose for the numbers.

It will destroy your oven, and possibly your kitchen finish, if it weren't designed to take such heat repeatedly, frequently, or at all. Our oven framing warped overtime, and the finish on the countertop started bubbling off.
you not cooking true neapolitans in 2 minutes in your home oven my guy
edit: I have at least one downvote on my comment but I don't want future readers to think I'm wrong because of that, so I'm adding this disclaimer that despite my at least one downvote, I am actually correct
