I had for AA camera batteries had a little fan in the base to keep them

Out of the battery cooling system.

Do you really think that manufacturers havent thought about this?

Yes, he probably does think that.

The ignorance of the general public about how hardware design is done
is almost absolute.


Explain how the USA Ford F150 pickup truck had its fuel tank
mounted just under the doors so that a T-bone impact created a
fireball ?. How hard did the manufacturers think about that ?.

EV batteries are generally guaranteed, therefore it is in the
manufacturer's interests to mollycoddle them.

Why you should ever think this is comparable to the placement of a fuel
tank beats me.
