It is most unlikely that you are correct. Entirely reasonably, few if any suppliers will accept warranty claims for physical damage caused by customer action. If you know of any who will, please tell us, so we can consider buying their products in future :-). Odds are that any who do will also charge price premiums that are higher than buying insurance, which is the normal manner of protecting against such losses.
