This is one of those things which prove that thought experiments often give you a very inaccurate expectation even when there is no way to prove it wrong and there is some logical consistency. In reality the heat required to cook a pizza needs to be within a certain temperature range for a sufficient duration of time. You can never cook anything with any kind of explosion, ever.
But the fact is when you first heard this you thought for a second "huh, that kind of makes sense" and there are people who literally believe that under the right conditions this would actually happen. Literal professors and college students. While this is a thought experiment is easily disproved, all thought experiments suffer from this same kind of blind acceptance. the "if it makes sense it must be true" fallacy. But what makes sense to you is horribly disfigured by your biases, you experiences, and your ignorance.
You could have just said a good number of them are stored vertically so all the toppings would sloth off.
Well, that's not a convincing argument because there could be many which are not. But you can't get around the fact that nothing can ever be cooked with a pulse of heat.
You are confusing the outer radius of an explosion which passes in an instant with the fireball expansion and collapse, which at least doubles, location dependant, the exposure of an object to heat. The metal could become super heated and radiate heat for some time.
Ah, a man of culture, I see. Like... non-ironically. You understand my frustration will all the low-IQ pseudo-intellectuals that I run in to, on a daily basis. It's infuriating and exhausting. Like constantly explaining to kindergartners why they should stop trying to touch a red-hot coal. Eventually, you just stop caring and chuckle a little bit, to yourself, every time you see one of them screaming in pain.
I hate this world.
This is obviously a noob cooking strategy. More heat = food done faster.
