We pipe methane into millions of homes. I don't think "this can silently kill people in the worst case" is enough to block something.
We also have to adulterate that methane with bitter smelling agents too warn people of the danger when there's a leak. The line into the house is also limited by a regulator to ensure the pressure is very low. If gas builds up in a battery, it's either going to leak out slowly or build up and leak out all at once.
Very much not an equal comparison.
