To the average user, a "test point" sounds like something from a quality control checklist at an ASUS factory. And initially, that was its purpose.

The problem? You can't press volume buttons to enter EDL mode on a hard-bricked ZS620KL. You need a hardware trigger. To the average user, a "test point" sounds
