Problem with a starter load.
It may draw say 200A, you use a fuse at say 250A....realistically it wont blow until 300A
You could have a small short of only a few amps which could cause that fire risk anyway. So there is a high chance the fuse wont really protect anyway. Now a good solid cut/short, then yes it would likely blow....or the battery itself.
Fuses dont work miracles, but yes they're better than nothing at all
