Unlike that mechanic, a failure in my position means I compromise the ability of a nuclear plant to shutdown in the event of accidents not a pissed off customer. I deal with safety related power distribution systems on a daily basis. This is real world, not theory.
"We follow orders, son. We follow orders or people die. It's that simple. Are we clear?"

Well, let's just say if the car is running, it has more potential to damage the electronics or other things on the bike, but maybe I'm over simplifying here, (I'm a practicing EE to, but if I screw up, only big transformers just burn up not whole nuke plants). Batteries do not "push" current, the components "pull" current.....you know what, nevermind, just not worth it.
