Why won't I need it and why will I never use it?
Do you know why I want it?

As an embittered ex fire fighter I think he may have thought you were referring to servicing in relation to the oxy acetylene/oxy propane cutting kit that was used/carried for rescue purposes by brigades before Jaws of Life, Cengar saws etc caught on.
