I'm speaking out of my ass here, so hold your nose.  I would *thing* or
*guess* that even with the higher heat inside the combustion chamber, if
ceramics and polimers and composites don't absorb heat, when the
explosion leaves out the exhaust valve, little heat would be retained,
unlike iron, steel, and other metals, thus detonation might not be a big
deal.

Though again, I'm thinking aloud here.
