It's simple, Torches are not forever!

Burning Torches adds new torches to the game that burn out over time, Gone are the days of place it and forget it! As they burn out you can extend the life by using planks or coal (by default) on the torch. Otherwise you can use an empty bucket (by default) on the torch to put it out so it won't burn up when it's not needed. They can easily be lit again with a flint and steel (by default).

Vanilla torches still exist in any world generation but as of V1.0.1 what they drop can be edited and the vanilla torch recipe is removed but can be enabled in the config or edited via datapack.
