Dear Xavier

No adding words. The concept of « health protective » is ill-defined and cannot be attributed to a stove. It is a synecdoque : « health protective » is an attribute which stoves cannot have unless perhaps it was used to shield you from bullets.

Shoot the hobby horse between the eyes, if it has any.
Crispin


« It's time to shoot this hobby horse of "health protective" cookstoves. Health is not divisible. »
Then, you disagree with Crispin that suppressing smoke by engineering cookstoves leads to a better (protects) health.
Even if we cannot quantify it well.

If you make a cookstove that emit less smoke, you protect health. The cookstove is then « health protective ».

Best,

Xavier
