> Teflon gives off fumes which contain byproducts including breakdowns back into PFAS compounds.

Completely incorrect. Overheating (aka "burning") completely destroys the molecule, and releases small molecule gases, like hydrogen fluoride. These have no relation to PFAS, they can't turn back into PFAS, and they look nothing like PFAS.

It's like saying that the smoke from burning wood is, in fact, wood.
