AFAIK, we're talking about deciding what the rules should require.
The Wikipedia thing is clearly different (15m at best, mostly 'sparks', very narrow, too weak to cycle the automatic, and keep flaring for 3-5 seconds), so we can decide what to do with it. None of that sounds like the SR ones, or even useful (and no word on damage/effectiveness even within that 15m max). No mention, though, of gun damage.
The numbers I've seen batted around, on the other hand, are equal to or better than the real flamers in Arsenal. Personally, I'd like something in between: categorically worse than flamers, but better than this lame cosmetic 'flare' on Wikipedia.

dragons breath is not much of a flare, it is a blast of incindiary shrapnel.
