190F Touch ID button.

So this is a new one I've never seen before. This 2019 MacBook air was brought to me for overheating issues. Well I got it, plugged it in, went to turn it on and it burned me. I was really taken aback so tested it over and over again. When it's completely off the touch ID button gets up to 190F! Just wanted to let the community know. Apple of course is denying that it's even possible. Much be a serious short somewhere.

I suddenly came across Louis Rossman's video, where he pointed out that +52V power pin for Display is located near the CPU power lane which is +4V provided. So he said that water or condensate damage to that place could easily make your laptop provide +52V of display to your CPU. That is why he hates Apple engineering.

And folks here claim Apple has “Premium hardware”, right. It just costs a premium while half assed engineered. I mean, they have some amazing stuff but it’s mixed with absolute head scratchers like this and majority on this site thinks Apple is completely infallible and are the best.
