Especially since antifreeze in a car is a 50/50 mixture with water so the igniting excuse further takes on the air of BS. Secondly, if it did get between the bulb electrodes wouldn’t the fuse just blow first?

You might get it to ignite at 280 degrees, but would the fire propagate in a 50/50 mix? Wouldn’t the evaporating water immediately cool the mixture down to the point that fire could not be sustained?

This is not passing the sniff test with me...

BMW uses 40 year old Cuyahoga River water in their radiators!
