If, if. Such arguments can be used to prove anything.

I've got a diesel-powered car in the basement garage. Fully tanked,
it contains 60kg of fuel, good for 2.4GJ or so. Imagine the havoc
that could cause, if it got loose. For reference, a stick of dynamite
is about 1MJ.

It can be made safe enough, I'm sure. As energy is concerned, there
is no such thing as /perfectly/ safe.
