oc- ether rxn with HI

For hot conc HI dont we further substitute the oh group and get 2 iodoalkanes? The ans given is opt 2 which would've been the case if they'd have given cold conc HI. What am i missing out on?

yeah true that we were basically taught that if they've mentioned hot conc HI/ excess HI we're supposed to take it further. ig it should only be so for the excess case then
