All types of tinder, controlled wind conditions... Sounds like too much fun for me I'm sure it will work on usual tinder with no problems. My idea was to prove the concept. Like try to ignite a sheet of plain paper. I know for sure a regular firesteel can't do that. But I'll try some damp natural tinder also. And maybe will check how it behaves in windy conditions compared to regular one.

adam. Could you provide some links to the abovementioned forums?
