You're right.  I think there is a strong desire to be quite focused
about what exactly the recipe format should describe.  I know I've
made suggestions of marking up bombs, tutorials or how to knit
scarves, but I can see how that could water down what is trying to be
achieved.  BUT, I still think that if the recipe format is done
correctly, it won't necessarily exclude unusual uses.

What happens if we do want to mark-up something more unusual as a
guide as to how to make something non-edible?  Is that a question that
we're already declaring out of scope.  I think that's my query.

Should we scope this now so that research can be focused?  What are
our ultimate aims/problems to be solved?
