Once I was forced to overhear a guy first having a long and explicit phone call with someone that I assumed was a girlfriend/mistress and then a second call to the wife trying to convince her that he wasn't having an affair and that it all was her imagination, with her being a bit nuts.

Meandering back to:
Hmmm. Well, lessee. Ignoring extreme temperatures, and even really hot temperatures, which I'm sure speed things up a bit ... and presuming, for statistical modelling's sake, a standard, perfectly round cow-product which makes its way though life, in the environs of a standard, perfectly round carry on... at temperatures in the center of the bell curve of such round objects:
Other than the an-aerobics, once it's SEALED, (presumably, evacuated beforehand), how is it going to get oxygen for anything bad to happen?
Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to go check on my collection of Tillamook cheeses, which I keep in the outer top slot of my Pathfinder luggage, right next to the three remaining emergency granola bars I bought at the Berkeley Trader Joe's a few years ago.

BTW - I reference in my response I stayed at a hotel for a week and each day I would go for jog, visit lounge to grab a cold water and return to my room. The same person allowed it the first four days but fifth day she wouldn’t allow me in without proper attire even though I explained I only want a
Bottle of water, which she indicated I can’t take out food or drinks from the lounge. I was going to argue I have been doing it all week and she seen me but she quickly blinked and nodded to which I realize her supervisor was sitting at the desk. I apologize, returned to my room, showered and returned an hour later when her supervisor wasn’t there and she apologize to which I told her I understand nor wish to get her in trouble...

Europe
P.S. Keep in mind many Asia hotels with executive lounges frequently force you to check-in at the lounge (front desk or bell man escorts you) as they have full time staff (minimum two) sitting at the desk at all times. Way different from Americas (excluding some South America locations).
