Was it after a long practice session or while testing a new design, etc. If there is care taken in making the wiring between the battery and the main breaker then the breaker will adequately protect the battery and the robot from damage.

That happened to 190, the WPI team at some pre-season competition. Im not sure of the details, but they smelled smoke from what I heard and they took a look and it was like that. I think securing those anderson connectors is fine, but a zip tie could be hazardous if you need to break that connection for some reason or another
