Yeah, man, people walk around with little sticks of dynamite, why are they concerned about the literal ton of TNT on these cars? They're equally dangerous! /s
I don't disagree that it's an overblown issue, but it's not NOT an issue. EVs will burn for longer, hotter, and are harder to put out than ICE vehicles, but I don't think it's a compelling argument against adoption.
But the difference in scale between the examples you gave is extremely hilarious
