tiered status effects

If I have a status effect that can come from an ability, for example, burning comes from an ability with 'incendiary', but this 'incediary' can have varying degrees of strength. Do I need multiple status effects? like burning 1, burning 2... burning 5 to go with the levels of incendiary? Or just one burning for all incendiaries? same for things like stunned, where the increased level may affect how long the stun effect lasts.

You can store the level in flags.

where do I put this flag? on the item that will apply the status? or on the target that has the status applied? Or is there always an effect created when you apply a status and I can put the flag on that? or is a status just a string on an effect, and when I have an action "apply a status" i'm really just creating an effect with the correct status id in its statuses set? in which case it would make sense I put the flag on that effect when I an creating it
