Why This Matters
Flammable vapors from Class 3 liquids and flammable solids are often invisible and can be heavier than air, meaning they can collect near the ground well outside what looks like the danger zone. A lit cigarette 20 feet away can still ignite vapors you can't see or smell, so the 25-foot line provides a real safety margin rather than an arbitrary number.
