    Components from hardware stores have all kinds of composition. If you don’t know what it’s made from, why would you assume it’s safe?

    Even “stainless steel” can have all kinds of different compositions, some highly allergenic, some out-right toxic.

      They didn’t assume it was safe? They thought maybe it was and asked to double check…
