I cant really agree that this is a problem worth bringing up, being that in my five odd years of snake keeping, the only substrate warning I have gotten was to not use Cedor.

Impaction, and problems related to eating a piece of substrate ( Like the ripping of the lining of their digestive track) are totally different things, I would have titled this differently because that to me would seem more like a problem.

What I am saying here is that I agree with you... Impaction has not nor will ever cloud my mind when it comes to choosing a substrate for my snakes.
It can cover both items. Call it being covered under the umbrella of ingesting substrate.

It's a red flag people wave but no one seems to have an issue with it in adult snakes.

So why does it come up?
