That’s actually a misunderstanding. Sure, regular bacteria can’t thrive at boiling temperatures, but some of then can at least survive boiling temperatures for brief periods of time. In the same way that tardigrades can survive the vacuum of space - they’re not really doing anything in space, but they can enter a state of hibernation that’ll allow them to survive
