    By that logic is fire not hot because what fire touches becomes hot?

      No because these are not comparable things. fire is the chemical reaction changing energy into heat, it IS heat to the extreme.

          Water is water. Something covered in water can be described as “wet”.

          And, no, water can’t be covered in water. It is just more water.

            But if I put flowing lava on more flowing lava it no longer has the property of being hot it just becomes more lava?

            water can’t be covered in water.

            This seems very… arbitrary.

            What if you used food coloring? You could have some red water, and if poured carefully, and before it diffused, you could “cover” it in blue water. Certainly, there’d be no way to get to the red water without first touching the blue bits, which feels a lot like being covered by them.

              Food coloring isn’t water. I’m talking pure H2O, baby

                But it… it can’t move unless the water moves. It just visually distinguishes… okay.
