I would assume downtime in terms of "we're paying all these warehouse workers to stand outside - now we have to send them home and the warehouse is unusable, we don't know if the product inside is salvageable due to potential water damage, etc. etc." Probably a lot easier on the business risk side of things to not have solar on the roof because then the risk for a fire is massively reduced in the first place.
