Not sure. Just seems like the very worst fires are from *large* 
concentrations of these cells packed closely together. Perhaps if there's 
even the slightest heat build-up in a faulty cell there needs to be at 
least *some* modicum of air-spacing to permit heat release or the whole 
'pile' goes into thermal runaway with the devastating results we typically 
see. I only say this because I've never known individual cells or small 
clusters of them go *bang* big time.
