Looking for the 20 hottest peppers in the world

Not the point I was attempting to make. If you want less heat with the same flavor, use less pepper. You don't have to eat the whole thing. That's where powder rules.
Lemondrop powder, for example, tastes very different to fresh Lemondrop. Both are good but I would not use one as substitute for the other.
 
I operate under the assumption that everyone understands subjectivity and would get that I'm simply stating mine.

It's as if people think that if they don't throw in something along the lines of "That's just your opinion.", then the opposing views may somehow move into the realm of fact and invalidate theirs.
 
There are habaneros and many different varieties of them that may be what you are looking for then. Chinense flavor without the intense heat.
