I would say that's an advantage for EVs. I'd rather have fires that are slow to start and slow to put out than the opposite.

  I’m not sure, it’s 24 hours of constant monitoring and fire suppression from a trained fire crew. Not something that’s scalable.

    Where did you hear 24 hours. Sounds anecdotal. All fire crews are trained. Are you saying there are untrained firefighters? Do you think that you in your tech job are more aware of fires than a firefighter.

      A lot of smaller fires are put out by fellow passages after the crash. At least here everyone has an obligatory fire extinguisher in their trunks. Real fire crew arrives later and makes sure its all safe.
