Being searingly hot is fine, just as long as it doesn't have any sharp edges...

As above, SVA rules allow you to burn someone but not cut them. We should really rename heatshields under existing SVA regs to something like
"edge shields"

the header pipe coming through the bodywork is even hotter - but that is not tested so why should the box be?
as ^^^^ say, it is tested fro sharp edges only.
