I once was talking to a firefighter who was saying that these days house/apartment fires burn hotter and much more rapidly. Why? Because of cheap furniture (materials and construction). He didn’t have kind things to say about IKEA.

Considering that the number of house fires are down between 30% - 50% in the developed world, I say we call it break even.
