   You do not advance your argument by the use of  foul language.

   No, "others" were refering to internal equipment fuses.

   Its not "terrifyingly easy" to find a screw, bolt or bit of metal that will   
   fit into the fuse holder. Its actually far easier to take a fuse from   
   another plug.

   They can be, BS7671 permits radial circuits protected by 32A circuit   
   breakers. If you were the expert you try to claim you are you'd know that.
