Eh. That’s not really comparable to lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are similar to bombs in that they’re highly dense stores of energy. If something goes wrong and that energy storage medium gets exposed to air, or charging safety feature fail, that’s a fire at best, explosion at worse, and it’s extremely toxic.
A car sitting 6 feet in the air is also a highly dense storage of energy that could be released at any moment. I do get your point, but there are ways to mitigate the dangers associated with working on a pack, and they’re not as volatile as you think. Being exposed to air isn’t going to cause a cell to explode as the lithium is mixed with other chemicals inside the cell to make it fairly inert. The danger comes from short circuits, whether it be a puncture or bridging contacts with something conductive.
Jacking Up a Car Is Dangerous. Here’s Why Mechanics Are Doing So Anyway

Have you ever attached jumper cables to a dead lead-acid battery?

Lead-acid batteries also present a risk of explosion.

That’s why you attach jumper cables to the dead battery first.
I suppose jacking off a car is also dangerous.
You wouldn’t download a car… And if you did, you wouldn’t jack off a car…
Depends. Are you a dragon?
Wasnt there subreddits for that?
Not that I know of.
There is dragonsfuckingcars.
