Causes harm to humans too. But birds happen to be particularly susceptible.
Looks like the research agrees with you re: incineration: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0045653519306435 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S004565351...
"Results indicate that, within procedural quantitation limits, no statistically significant evidence was found that the PFAS studied were created during the incineration of PTFE. Therefore, municipal incineration of PTFE using best available technologies (BAT) is not a significant source of the studied PFAS and should be considered an acceptable form of waste treatment."
