I am also a bit curious but my thought is it is the closest to the connector but weaker than the wiring in the connector. If any circuit gets shorted to ground, that spot seems to be the weak link in the flow.

While doing my testing, I have fried a few by shorts and that is the spot the burn through.

Maybe some of the others have some ideas. I know it is hard to keep good ones around for long
