Habaneros were hot enough to upset my stomach when I roasted and ate them, but they were still tasty. I don't see any benefit from eating hotter than that, other than to say "I ate something retardly hot", and I just don't care enough about other people to bother.
The pith is the hottest part, which gets mostly removed when deseeding if not careful. I recall the seeds are not hot at all, but apparently they have some capsaicin in them: https://pepperscale.com/eating-pepper-seeds/

IMHO anything above a Heat Rating of 6 is just punishment. No eats Ghost Peppers, and Carolina Reapers for the taste.

If there's anything worth eating beyond that, I haven't heard of it.
Heat is great and not at the expense of flavor.
