This change/mod involving one of the most locked-down devices seems pointless. What do you like about the project? Or is it that the additional cable is so irksome?

I have my own "must-do" projects that from outside perspective is seen as pointless. So, this is more about understanding than poking holes.

Another way to look at it, you can put one of the most powerful mini computers at the edge with PoE, think machine vision with industrial USB camera type of scenario.
