I don't know why acetone is terrible, but it attacks the epoxy, leading to
toner smeared into it.
Paint thinner doesn't do that. From a health point of view acetone is much
better than paint thinner.
My method is scraping by the way. use another PCB and just scrape the
toner off.
No solvent at all.

Agreed. The fuser is certainly one of the better methods.

You seem rather fixated on the one method, but hey, you find it working
for you that's fine with me.
Just remember there are many papers, fusers, methods to soak, remove,
etc...
Using your set of steps does _not_ ensure it will work. Granted, chances
are higher, but it can fail
all the same and other methods can work all the same.
Maybe you want to set up a page with precise instructions at some point?
