Which outcome resulted from improved naphtha purification's flammability in Byzantine flamethrowers?

💡 Explanation

Greater purity of naphtha allowed the Byzantine Greek Fire to project significantly farther due to its more effective combustion and thus enhanced release of kinetic energy. Therefore longer ranges were achieved, rather than a focus on creating less corrosion or more convenient ignition methods.
