Actually what is more common with low tire pressure is that on landing the
rubber tire "slips" on the rim during spin up.. putting pressure on the
valve stem and cutting it or wearing a hole near the valve stem.

According to the CFI, land a bit cockeyed with tire pressures that low
and you could easily blow out a tire.
I can believe that the tire would separate from the rim, allowing the tire
pressure to be completely relieved. Technically, that would be a "blow
out" IMHO, but it's not the same as a failure of the actual tire material.
