Which is certainly inconvenient, but it's really difficult to do any
serious damage to the airplane if it's on the ground and you can't get
the engine started :-)

Yeah, but if it's MY airplane, I'm the one who has to replace the starter
which the renter might overheat by excessive cranking of the balky engine.

If it's a typical rent-a-wreck, the battery will run down long before
you can do any damage to the starter.
