Why do resistors often have a safety factor of 2 in regard to their power rating?
That might be done if the resistor is in a restricted space where the air flow is limited.
You need heat sinks to keep the resistors from burning up. A long time ago, I used resistors "to specs", and they burned up in a week. So I used "10x specs", and they burned up in a month. Finally, I waterproofed the resisters and dumped them in a pail of water (a big heat sink) -- that worked. (Not to be recommended, however.)
