Been shoving batteries without covers into the front section of my camera bag along with car keys, pens and all sorts of crap for decades. I've not died a horrible fiery death yet.
Its mainly to keep the cr*p out of the EN-EL15 terminals(Slots), I have had to clean some fluff out of one after keeping it in the side pocket of my bag uncovered, the old style batteries were never a problem.
