It goes without saying to always use proper batteries, practice battery safety, know ohms law, etc.
These suggestions are for doomsday scenarios. They are only suggestions and work for certain types of shorts only. They are based on principle that a circuit must be complete to work.

If the short is in the atty, (like on a hybrid mod with the wrong atty or an [edited] battery top) unscrew the atty!
If the switch is shorted (stuck “on”), unscrew the atty!
Obviously, you can also remove both batteries for a parallel mod or a single battery for a series mod. But I think unscrewing the atty a couple of turns is faster (then remove the batteries).
It’s my personal opinion that this would be a good first thing to do.
It should (but not always) also apply to regulated mods in cases where the protection circuits are compromised.
I have heard of cases of stuck switches, and it pretty much amazes me that people don’t think to simply cut the circuit at the atty.
