Note that filling/auto-filling will never put you in this situation,
since Org has a protection mechanism. IOW, if you end up with a list
marker at the beginning of a line, it's your fault.

Be careful here. ": " at a beginning of a line defines a fixed-width
area. It is an element and, therefore, would have precedence over your
math snippet. In this case, fontification will warn you.

Adding comma escaping in an object would be complicated because of
filling. It would also add even more problems. So, no, there needn't be
a protection mechanism in inline math snippets.

Also, let me remind you that, LaTeX-wise, "-2" is equivalent to "- 2".
So, you can avoid that list marker problem pretty easily.
