A point a little too specific to apply to a UK residential dwelling imo. By the time fire and smoke sought out and breached such transits, the smoke detection system will have been wailing for a long time. We ( British BRegs ) favour the early alert aka smoke / heat alarms rather than structural integrity it seems, and apart from fire resistant light fittings I doubt any serious concerns will ever be raised high enough to make intumescent 'transit packing' commonplace for residential, not whilst we enjoy open hallways with open staircases at least.
