Which outcome occurred when Byzantine sailors deployed Greek fire too liberally with marginal winds?

💡 Explanation

Uncontrolled fires often ignite adjacent flammable materials because the fire spread mechanism transfers thermal energy via radiation and convection. Therefore, friendly ships ignited, rather than directional propulsion because wind direction made fire focus impossible.
