What the evidence preview establishes

One pixel failed because a large copper-plating skip opened a package via. Other pixels had intact vias and solder joints; electrical isolation and section evidence instead supported fractures in encapsulated aluminum bond wires.

Why this case matters

Do not treat a repeated functional symptom as proof of one physical cause. Trace each electrical path through solder joints, package vias, die bonds, and wire spans before assigning a corrective action.
