You think that meteors don't have lithium? The third most common atom in the universe?

You think the toxity and dangers of materials are defined by the atoms the materials are made of rather than the molecules? Swimming in a ocean of Hydrogen-Oxygen salted by Sodium Chloride must feel dangerous..

Also the toxic fumes from burning batteries don't really come from the lithium but everything else the batteries are made of.
