Seems like this would be an example of us using our heads to trap and fight
monster reaistily. I don't know about you but part of any battle involves
having the best position and if we can trp a bunch of dumb monsters in a
building and light it up... Well seems like that is using our heads. The
monster can do this to us and we have to scramble to find an exit. They
should have to also.
