I've come across many a mouse where the soldering of the switch to the
printed circuit board has mechanically failed, either through just the
normal use of the mouse, or when mice get dropped and land on a button.

50 years ago in college I had a weekend job in the repair shop of a music and
electronics store.  The majority of the repairs were for bad solder joints or breaks
in circuit board traces, mostly cheap portable TV's.  Some failure modes remain
too expensive to eliminate in manufacturing that targets low end prices.
