A 200 degree dry surface is not hand burning hot, easy touch but don't leave your ice cream on it. Dipping your hand in 200 degree liquid is bad mojo and can be a serious burn. My rule for hydro equipment including my tractor is that I can hold my hand on the filter and count three seconds. Any hotter and I give it a break, clean the chaffe.
Of course, my hands might be tougher or weaker than yours.
I like the simplicity of the spit boil rule but to burn spit off, the surface temp would have to be quite hot and the tank temp would be much hotter. That's too hot for the equipment.
On the splitter. Easy to touch, but not leave your hand there forever is fine.
