Bamboo makes excellent caning rods for use on people who don’t mind their own business.

termites.
maybe not termites, but actually it is a similar insect that destroys bamboo.
and of course a nice typhoon will destroy a bamboo or even wood house easily.
when this area of the Philippines started getting more prosperous, the first thing they did was replace their bamboo/wood homes with concrete houses.

When I was a kid, inspired by Gilligan's Island reruns, I used to cut bamboo along the riverbank, and use scraps of bailing wire to bind it together into huts. Great fun for playing army, and when the huts started decaying, and became boring, the application of a few kitchen matches produced a conflagration of Götterdämmerung proportions.

Bamboo would make an easy way to smuggle drugs—something those U.N. geniuses are apt to do.

“Until recently, most buildings were constructed using locally sourced earth, stone, timber, and bamboo. Yet modern materials such as concrete and steel often give only the illusion of durability, usually ending up in landfills and contributing to the growing climate crisis,” said Sheila Aggarwal-Khan, Director of UNEP’s Industry and Economy Division. NOT an *illusion*, you idiot.
She clearly has no idea hot fast and hot bamboo burns.

You are correct.
It’s evil and malicious intent.

Little boxes on the hillside
Little boxes made of ticky tacky
Little boxes on the hillside
Little boxes all the same
There's a pink one and a green one
And a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same
And the people in the houses
All went to the university
Where they were put in boxes
And they came out all the same

If the story of the Three Little Pigs had been the Four Little Pigs, the other pig’s house could have been made of bamboo.

Big deal.
Captain Kirk made a cannon outta bamboo, charcoal and sulfur and blasted a giant space lizard with it.
