How dangerous are air elementals around lava?

[Lavandula]

Air elementals in trunk can cast Vortex, which acts like short-lived tornado. It can push player above lava. Do I understand correctly that with enough luck air elemental can kill player instantly?

No. In trunk, where the elementals have mini-nado, you get emergency flight that drains you. Player lava/drowning death is a thing of the past.

Even when you've been confused, say an orc wizard or a swamp drake?

That behaviour has changed too. I think you dont get asked "are you sure you want to stumble around close the water?" anymore.

Instead you just cant fall in even if you are confused? Not sure. But all forms of insta-death should be gone.

It can toss you around the local area pretty dramatically though, including pushing you around blind corners and away from stairs.

So be wary of any other monsters and unexplored areas nearby, too.
