    What am I missing here? I've seen similar 'repairs' done by cutting through the layers; but, unlike this data recovery, those repairs had the machine working fine. HOW?? I don't understand how these boards keep working after cutting a big hole through multiple layers of traces...surely this cuts connections with many many different circuits et al? Would love a video explaining exactly what is happening and how/why this process works. Cheers!

      The hole removed the short to ground, and it was in a non critical area. Sure lots of traces were cut but it still worked, kinda like how people don't need appendixes, gall bladders or spleens to live.
