Importance of Not Advancing Into Fire until The Smoke Has Cooled Discussion

Smoke Clouds and Firefighter

Recently, there has been discussion over the importance of not advancing into a fire until you have cooled the smoke with a wetting agent.

What has been your observation, experience, reflection, or reasoning for wetting agents or water on cooling smoke? Do you support this? Why, or why not?
