m "Reverse fuse" isn't terminology that I've heard recently -- but if the term is going to be mentioned, it definitely needs a link or citation about what a "reverse fuse" is. Also, with the added example, the term "dirty" ended up getting used just before being defined in the next paragraph; that didn't seem necessary. |

A reaction that produces a small number of different objects which are desired or which are easily deleted is said to be clean. For example, a puffer that produces just one object per period (such as blinker puffer 1) is clean. Clean reactions are useful because they can be used as building blocks in larger constructions.
When a fuse is said to be clean, or to burn cleanly, this usually means that no debris at all is left behind. Most useful fuses are clean, and some examples include beehive fuse and blinker fuse.
A reaction that is not clean is said to be dirty. Reverse fuses start out as being dirty, eventually stabilising to a clean form.
