What percentage of refuelings of this type have ended in fire?

Insurance companies always want zero risk, for maximum profit. They don't
care how much it costs their clients.


Not exactly.

"Insurance companies" are businesses which must provide a service at a
price some portion of the population is willing to pay. It's called
the intersection of Supply and Demand.

In Capitalism there is a tension between "maximizing profit" and
remaining competitive. This is a Good Thing, and it is the engine that
drives free economies.

But given your ABC Nightly News Level understanding of business, I'm
thinking this is a waste of effort.
