I believe LOX is injected into the engine as a liquid, it gets atomised rather than boiled? And you can have fires where both fuel and oxidiser are solid: thermite reactions. "Fire point" seems to be more of a factor for conventional fire concerns, albeit I'm judging a phrase I've not heard before by a stub-sized Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_point |
