"Of course it matters," Strange responds, in a tone of 'well DUH.' "I plan on practicing an act with fire next."

Look, this is him being considerate. Strange knows that despite the fact that he's absolutely gung-ho about working with fire, Childermass might see some problem with a madman fiddling around with fire magic (though it's really silly to worry, he knows what he's doing! Maybe.)

"While the tent may be fireproof, you are not." It's just said way too casually. Strange doesn't plan to set Childermass on fire, of course, but he's a bit aware of the fact that he's in a space to test magic he hasn't had the opportunity to test before, his naturally showy tendencies are going to be taken to a new extreme.
