LEDs tile

Technical Support for Routers
1

D1 to D6 are in source mode with common to GND while D7 to D9 are in sink mode with common to 3.3V.

Is there any reason why all the LEDs are not connected the same way on the LEDs tile ?

No news about this design discrepancy ?

LED0, LED1, LED2, LED3, LED4, LED5 are also for Boot-strap during power on.
To avoid wrong voltage applyed on the IO pin from LED,these GPIOs should be source current only.
The rest LEDs are using sink current mode to reduce the Hornet internal 2.5V LDO loading (thermal).

Thanks !
That sounds logic …
