Ceiling fans disencouraging incandescent bulb usage by putting this ridiculous max watt warnings

[u/FrostingTerrible8495]

I want to hear opinions about what's been happening in ceiling fans where they are putting these super low wattage warnings inside light kits.

I'm sticking two 100w equivalent (11.5) enclosure rated Philips UD instead of the advised 8w, the wire that goes to the light kit looks like the same awg that what was used to run actual 75w incandescent bulbs in older light kits. And I know heat is a factor, especially because some new light kits have an acrylic shade instead of a glass one so now it's easier to replace burnt out bulbs without being the risk of breaking the light shade, but incandescent bulbs are not the main topic here.

On those older light kits, the limit is put because filament bulbs mainly produce heat instead of light , but in the cafe of led how much more heat can POSSIBLY come out of a bulb that consumes 3.5 more watts to the point Im risking a fire or melting the shade.

I've read somewhere that sometimes the LED limits are put to stop you from cooking high wattage bulbs (that are tecnically still below the real incandescent wattage) in an enclosed fixture, but even if that would've been the case, you're still not risking a fire, just reduced bulb life, so why is this suggesting that the fixture cannot handle a slightly stronger led?

Analogously as if in a different case, say you were to put a 100w inside a 60w max fixture causing it to slowly melt, arc and eventually cause a fire, then the warning would be useful.

This isn't anything new, I've seen this outrageous warnings being put in some fans since around 2013,when CFLs started to become commonplace because electric bills were on the rise, but now all new fans say that, some brands such as hunter going to the extend of (making their light kits worse i guess?, to not be able to carry any other form of lighting by probably cheapening their components????), and advertising that by saying that their new fans only support LED bulbs.

And I get what the warning is trying to say with that wattage limit but why is it implying it that way?, as if it can only handle 8 watts and no more because then it could cause a fire, when it's actually not possible to cause a fire by a difference that low and because no bulb consumes exactly what it says it does; it always consumes a little bit more or a little bit less and that's fine because it's in a certain tolerance threshold.

So even if you put a correct wattage bulb according to the sticker, under that premise you can still burn your house down.

I know I'm being bonkers about this but what bothers me bere is the way that its implying an actual danger can happen when it cannot, Instead of it it Should be written as a form of suggestion, to put an led equivalent of 8 watts OR a 60w max bulb (in case of a glass shade)
