It's moreso that a battery rupture could cause massive damage to the internals of the robot and any close components assuming the bellypan of the robot isn't fully enclosed.
It was stated that the fire was caused by a battery short with a live chassis. If a robot is on fire, 9 times out of 10 it will be because of a battery short or electrical fault. When a high amperage electrical circuit shorts, touching the metal chassis of the robot is a good way to become less alive.
