My biggest concern is that thermal runaway can occur if a Li-ion battery reaches temperatures between 140-350 degrees Fahrenheit.

That’s 210 degrees Fahrenheit… I want to make the argument that this laptop would burn your skin if it was resting on your lap. But, Apple refers to them as “portables” and suggests that they not be rested on your lap. https://www.engadget.com/2006/05/19/warn...

Things have certainly changed.
