Only Flamethrowers apply the reduced healing rate

Flare guns don't apply this reduced healing rate, which people seem to believe it does. This is not true and here is a video showing that. Notice that only the flamethrower gives the "glitched medi-gun" sound effect, and the detonator doesn't.
The sound effect indicates that the medic is healing at a reduced rate for a couple of seconds:

This goes for ALL flare guns and ALL flamethrowers; except the Dragon's Fury for unknown reasons.
Besides this, this stat is only shown on the flamethrowers, and is not shown on any flare gun. It's not even a hidden-stat.

Edit: Made another video showing the medic's POV. Notice that with the flamethrower, the hp kind of locks into place for a couple of seconds before it gradually heals up again. With the flare guns, it gradually goes up even with afterburn applied.

this guy made a chart https://www.reddit.com/r/truetf2/comments/bg4383/fire_healing_debuff/ showing how the healing debuff affect healing (Note that the cart is a level 1 dispenser)

while flamethrower after burn does slow down healing it also get cleansed quicker by the medibeam heal source(mediguns, dispenser, and payload carts). How much quicker? For every sec you heal the target you take a sec off the debuff(the only debuff that I think that is not affect is marked for death). https://gfycat.com/astonishingimperturbablehornedtoad

as for the other two non-pyro weapon that cause afterburn the Cow Mangler after burn does not reduce healing, but the Huo-Long Heater's afterburn does
