I can read pretty well and your warning certainly was not just about "too much heat."
You stated, "Even if you get it apart with lube and heat the damage is done and it is a safety hazard as it looks fine but it is not . . . "
That is utter nonsense. Does it happen sometimes when hardware is overstressed, overheated, etc. ? Sure. Some people can screw anything up, and even someone who knows what he/she is doing will find fasteners that cannot be removed without damange. Certainly not all that are heated as you claim. If you mean what your words convey in everyday English, you are incorrect.
Your later comment, i.e. " if you feel the fastener yield it is too late to save it. "
That is even MORE nonsense. When a normal nut comes loose, it's yielding, rusty or lubed. It's a matter of how much torque it takes to yield. A bolt is a spring and had a yield point. If a nut seems to be rusted/stuck, and the normal amount of torque is not turning it, and adding some heat THEN allows it to turn, there is no change in metalurgy, no over-stress, and no problem.

In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
