Remove the white phosphorous recipe added in #74599

[kevingranade]

It's possible to do but is much more involved than this recipe makes it

Summary

None

Purpose of change

On review of the source https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus#Bone_ash_and_guano used in #74599 the recipe added doesn't remotely resemble the actual recipe.

"Bone ash was the major source of phosphorus until the 1840s. The method started by roasting bones, then employed the use of fire clay retorts encased in a very hot brick furnace to distill out the highly toxic elemental phosphorus product.[54] Alternately, precipitated phosphates could be made from ground-up bones that had been de-greased and treated with strong acids. White phosphorus could then be made by heating the precipitated phosphates, mixed with ground coal or charcoal in an iron pot, and distilling off phosphorus vapour in a retort.[55] Carbon monoxide and other flammable gases produced during the reduction process were burnt off in a flare stack."

Basically you need to process the bones in a kiln to produce elemental phosphorous, or react them with strong acid to create a phosphorous precipitate which is then reacted with charcoal and distilled to yield phosphorous.

Describe the solution

Just removes the recipe.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I don't have time to dig into the proper recipe other than briefly describing it here.

Maybe add a recipe for heating the bone meal or using strong acids to acidify the bone meal to produce calcium phosphate, and then use the calcium phosphate to produce white phosphorus in the same recipe as before, what do you think? 🤔

[kevingranade]

Yes go ahead.

Page 173 has an improvised white flare and page 184 has an improvised white smoke munition. Might be more practical than white phosphorus.

I don't think this is really relevant to the PR past "here's a use for WP"
