Which risk increases when a chemical reactor nears runaway?

💡 Explanation

An accelerant drives higher reaction rate output, resulting in rapid temperature increase because thermal runaway is caused by autocatalysis. Thus the reaction rate increases faster, therefore accelerating and risking explosion rather than temperature control easing.
