Have any of you used a breaker in lieu of a fuse on the alternator to battery power wire when upgrading the wiring? Pros? Cons?

I'm more concerned with getting into an accident, and shorting the power cable to ground with something jamming the breaker closed and the battery catching fire. Super long odds, but a fuse wouldn't fail, so it's an unnecessary risk in my mind, regardless of the odds, it's greater than zero.That's kind've what I''m thinking. A fuse isn't mechanical and hypothetically should be more reliable. My concern is the effect of cold and heat under the hood affecting the reliability of a breaker over time.
