Open Flame in the Pits

Why is this not allowed? How else are teams expected to prevent fraying cords and ropes. Obviously you could use tape, but it isn't nearly as professional or permanent as burning the end. I think it's a stupid rule. I get that the rule helps to prevent fires in the pit and things like that, but these teams are trusted with many more dangerous tools and equipment than a lighter.
