The problem with pencils is that in space broken graphite floats around easily and is conductive. A conductive powder floating into something electronic in a pressurized oxygen rich environment is no bueno.
I’m not sure, but with that much oxygen in the air I’m sure anything could “become” flammable, especially when atomized or turned into a powder. That’s why grain silos on farms are fire hazards; the dust.

Graphite powder is also quite flammable isn’t it?
