Then, the possibility exists that "bad stuff" might happen.
The ideal setup would be egt sensors in each and every exhaust port
connected to a computer that will record actual exhaust gas temperatures,
and do something like shut the engine down if a dangerous condition occurs.
It would have to be quicker than human reaction times to be effective.
By the time humans notice something wrong and take action, damage is
already occurring. When "sh## happens" it is on the timeline of
nanoseconds and seconds, not minutes.
