    Isn’t that a pretty flawed design flaw then. Why not use a heater as a heater rather than a light bulb ? Or like a heat lamp ?

      Sometimes you will just introduce more safety issues if you try to overengineer things. In a lot of cases you have to assume that not everything that you want will be easily available and cheap, available and safe will beat some plastic thing ordered from ali express by Walmart.
