Why are fireproof decorations in buildings required?

Fireproof decorations are required in buildings primarily to ensure safety during emergencies, particularly to prevent the spread of fire. In the event of a fire, materials that are not fire-resistant can ignite and contribute to the fire's intensity and spread, leading to more significant damage and posing greater risks to occupants' safety. By using fireproof materials for decorations, the potential for a fire to escalate is significantly reduced, allowing for safer evacuation and enabling firefighters to control the situation more effectively.

The other options may reflect certain aspects like aesthetics or compliance issues, but they do not address the primary concern of fire safety that fireproof decorations are specifically intended to mitigate.
