I don't know, i don't know what kind of light bulb to get, there's like 57 dozen varieties and I don't want to start a fire
My dad's just like "yup that's a standard 800 lumen bulb"
(That's not my hand btw)

"not for fully enclosed luminaires" is printed on all commercially available globe light bulbs, it's one of those CYA phrases like "Caution: coffee may be hot" or "this dildo is sold as a novelty only."
Essentially it's the company covering in case the bulb burns out earlier than the listed lifespan due to heat.
