Interesting! That's not the way I usually see that aphorism used. I usually see it used as "your first, and quite possibly second and third, responses have not worked. Now it's time to pull out the big guns."
Which, IMO, is much closer to the controlled burn scenario. If your kitchen fire had spread to the nearby grasslands...
