The board design stroke of good luck reminds me of Supermicro A1S boards with the C2000 SoC. The LPC clock output dies after a while, and the fix is to bodge in some pull-ups. Some vendors had crazy reworks, but Supermicro had two pairs of pads they could use for 0402s.

The official repair/bodge from Supermicro is not installed.Back of a Supermicro A1SRi-2758F motherboard affected by the C2000 bug that caused seemingly dead systems, after official repair by Supermicro. Two 0402 resistors (marked with red rectangles) were added taking advantage of existing pads that coincidentally were close enough to use 0402 resistors.
