'This ability appears to be deliberate as opposed to instinctive; when not specifically using his fire to send notes or items to the Princess, he breathes "regular" fire'

Debatable. When he is given the hiccups in Griffon The Brush Off he sends the letters to Celestia and it is clearly not deliberate. Obviously he can choose normally, but with involuntary processes it seems random.

Either that OR the objects themselves have some sort of reation to the fire, after all we've only seen sealed scrolls and special tickets sent.
