It’s insane that they’re still trying to blame user error for this basic issue. The design shouldn’t allow double the rated amperage to go through a single wire/pin without causing the whole thing to shutdown.
Yeah, my concern at the moment isn’t on whether it’s user error or not, it’s that it seems that ANY damage or subpar connectivity on some of the cables may cause this. Potentially any wear and tear at any point, from the PSU to the cable to the connector. It’s one thing when you designed a finicky connection, it’s another when your default failure mode is a fire hazard.
