When Li Po's go, they go spectacuarly.
The monitoring is to detect something is up and cut it off.
If something is up and it isn't cut off, kablooie.
The bloat was an indication that the battery wasn't far from going off.

In the early days of RC racing using these and prior to the per cell monitoring these things have burned down houses.
Lipo has incredible performance stats for a battery, but it also has increased risks.
