Will placing the Asus ROG G16 laptop in tilt mode cause liquid metal to leak?

Hello, I recently bought an ROG Strix G16 G614JV laptop, and I am very particular about using my equipment properly. I have encountered an issue that I couldn't find a clear answer to, and I would appreciate your guidance.

I have several questions:

1- Does liquid metal require a cooling pad or not?

2- Main question: When the laptop is turned on, the liquid metal transitions from a solid to a liquid state. If the laptop is placed flat on a desk, there is no issue.
However, would using the laptop at a 40-45 degree incline cause damage? My concern is that when the liquid metal becomes liquid and the laptop is at an incline, over time or even in the short term, it could cause corrosion to the protective barrier around the liquid metal.
If it leaks onto the motherboard, given its conductivity, could it cause motherboard failure.

Is this information correct?
If so, at what maximum incline should I use my laptop? I usually place it on a stand.
If not, please explain how it works and the logic behind it ؟
