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.
