Yeah, and 99.9% of the time, it's the dumbest idea in history.Sometimes you gotta fight fire with fire!
Ask any firefighter.
Don't bore me with your defective understanding of backfires. I know what they are and how they work. That's the 0.1% of the time "fighting fire with fire" is a good idea.
The rest of the time, it makes you look like a hypocrite and/or a fool.
