Carb floats can be pretty thin these days. however, You would have to have a high % of water in the bowl to damage one by freezing. Blowing the carb out with compressed air is usually the cause of float collapse. Starting fluid sure could do it but I actually have never known it to have done so. N's actually don't have enough compression to make starting fluid practical to use, you likely have some tune up or compression issues if you need to use it.

If not freezing water in the gas...

Could it be possible that it backfires, and crushes the float?

The floats are imploding?

What's the start issue? spark.. or fuel?

125 pounds of air pressure shot in to the fuel inlet will do the job.
