Question Blast Shields/Flame Shields, Flame Cutting, etc....

OK, I've done my research, and have come up with very little info, and even less info from S&W; a few questions regarding blast shields:

1. What handgun or material used is a blast shield a must?

2. Is the presence of a blast shield caliber dependent; by this I mean, it's required if the handgun is chambered in and for magnum rounds, but not installed if it is chambered in, say, 38 Special?

3. The abscence of a blast shield in a scandium framed revolver with a titanium cylinder chambered in 357 Mag is indicative of what?

4. The presence of a blast shield in a scandium framed revolver, a stainless steel cylinder, and chambered for 38 Special only is indicative of what?

5. Lastly, as in #4, the same scandium framed revolver with a carbon steel cylinder, and chambered for 38 Special only has no blast shield...why?
