Yes, accidents happens, and errors with aviation fuel of any kind, could bring hell anywhere. But the main thing here is the engines getting instantly on fire and exploding, for just a bit of excess fuel. The main effect of this, is bringing the turbine to an overheat.
But if you cut the fuel, you get a more than fair chance of starting again without more consequences than diminsihing the engines life, or just burning more fuel than needed.
Here and now, is a digital thing. Move the thrust too fast, and it goes BOOM! This effect was allways a bit on the exagerated part.
The 262 was not put into flying without testing. It was a whole program with almost 5 years sinjce engines development.
And also you may find reports about accidents with them, but nothing as sistematich as it is in game.
