Not sure how/why some of the bulbs burned through the plastic buttons...

I think the bulbs burned through because these buttons were thinner due to being pressed more frequently than the other buttons.

Obviously the LED labels refer to the temperature of the individual LEDs. ;)

Nothing "burned"- due to repeated use, parts of the membrane broke. The largest cavity behind the membrane was that containing the light, so that went first. You can see it happening to the other buttons.
