The best inference that can be made from the text is "Spice refers to heat instead of flavor." The text specifically discusses the measurement of spiciness (heat) in peppers through the Scoville scale, indicating that "spice" in this context refers to heat levels.
Use this paragraph to answer the question.
In 1912, Wilbur Scoville developed a scale for measuring the spiciness of peppers. The Scoville scale is still referenced today on many brands of hot sauce so that consumers will understand how much "heat" to expect from the product. This scale provides important information for those people who don't enjoy intensely spicy things. For example, a habanero chili is about 40 times hotter than a jalapeno pepper!
