Aug 1, 2020 at 5:48 comment added DrSheldon That's exactly what I meant. There are some questions which are dangerous because they describe how to use readily-available materials to do something dangerous. This question is not dangerous because the materials involved are not readily available.
Aug 1, 2020 at 5:19 comment added Mr X @DrSheldon you do realize that the knowledge is only half the battle, you need the MATERIALS to actually do it with. Those materials are tightly controlled. I realize that questions about homemade propellant are not permitted here and I didn't go into any details about that.
Jul 31, 2020 at 17:32 comment added DrSheldon I'd also say that giving out information that a teenager could use to blow themselves up is also under the ban, even if the asker doesn't intend to blow themselves up. However, this question doesn't seem to fit that criterion, either. (What teenager is going to get HIBEX propellant?)
