Neither does a NiMH battery. There's no link between vulnerability to external damage and ability to power a laptop.
In fact, there's no fundamental reason why we couldn't run our laptop on chocolate[1], just that it's very far away from current technology.

It’s just that modern laptops run on Li-ion batteries.
True, but not that hard. I had some “dangerous experiments for kids” book back in the day and by far the most fun thing in it was aerosolizing flour with a straw to get the right mixture near your Bunsen burner for your own glorious short lived fireball.
The flour conditions of exploding are far more difficult to achieve than a LiIon battery conditions - orders of magnitude difference.
