The Arma Gigas is the knight geist.

In the forest, the grass around the tree began to catch on fire and probably would have burned down the whole forest. It is likely that Ozpin sent someone to stop the fire from ruining initiation. https://youtu.be/N1TJ5YA3jfw?t=169

In the Character short, there was no wooden infrastructure or grass to burn. The issue is that Grimm normaly appear in areas with either grass or wood.

In the Golem fight, the flaming tree just so happened to be attached to the arm of a Grimm in the middle of a clearing with no grass, and went out in under 5 seconds. That is why nothing in the surroundings caught on fire. If it were in the middle of the forest, a large portion of the area would have been burned.

I don't see an issue with explosive rounds like Yang's, but a full on flamethrower causes too much environmental damage.
