there is a very real difference between a terror attack, and a normal call out.

the reason why the area was delegated hot was because of reports of gun fire/ramming.

sadly, your logic isn't correct, we still have firefighters burn to death while trying to rescue civis.

"A firefighter at Grenfell Tower prepared to die when his oxygen almost ran out during the attempted rescue of a 12-year old girl because the fire lift failed, the public inquiry has heard."

many people died in this event, not because of firefighters on the ground, but because of leadership/command/govt.
