First each state and country has their own rules. Second they are not required on all circuits.That house must be old and not compliant to the electrical rule, all electrical board must be fitted with RCD for safety.
With an RCD fitted on board something like this can't happen as the RCD switch of automatically protecting people's life and appliances therefore avoiding get the house/apartment caught on fire.
What you mean by "Only" ??but this only applies to power outlet and lighting circuits.
Legislation does not mean intelligent rules, if you are aware of the safety of your family and protect your property from burning down its your duty to take the step and upgrade your installation, don't try to bullshit me with some poor copy/paste from Google because obviously you don't know what are you talking about.Legislation on existing homes varies from state to state and doesn't require safety switches on all household circuits.
You are funny.What you mean by "Only" ??

An RCD/GFCI wont cut power to something that looks like load between live and neutral. It only trips for faults that conduct to the system ground. Also, that wire apparently had enough resistance to not pull enough current to blow the fuse.That house must be old and not compliant to the electrical rule, all electrical board must be fitted with RCD for safety.

A wire this short doesn't have enough resistance to allow an RDC to stay ON, that definitely a bridge between phase/neutral therefore an RDC will definitely trip.An RCD/GFCI wont cut power to something that looks like load between live and neutral.

Maybe you are thinking of a RCBO, they have added overload protection compared to RCD? That wire may be very thin so to have high resistance.A wire this short doesn't have enough resistance to allow an RDC to stay ON, that definitely a bridge between phase/neutral therefore an RDC will definitely trip.
That house is not equipped with RDC this is why the fuse allowed few seconds of contact before it blew, that few seconds is enough to kill or start a fire.
I mean a resistive wire like a heater wire from an electric blanket that has been cut short.Maybe you are thinking of a RCBO, they have added overload protection compared to RCD? That wire may be very thin so to have high resistance.
