I too have heard of some lipos not flaming on puncture, but I've seen videos that do. The demo on A123 website shows this as well. Maybe the lipo technology has matured enough, but I've seen enough videos to know to be careful. It seems that the lipos flame enough to do considerable collateral damage. Granted, it's all about proper care and handling, but accidents do happen. Of course any cell can cause damage, it's just that some seem to be more tolerant than others.

Question: what was the charge level of the lipo you punctured?
