    Perhaps the donor connector was also missing a pin. Maybe he was just giving you an option if you ever run into a non available connector. You just got a free education on what to do if it was unavailable. Great video.

      Seeig that the plastic was so easy to cut , i imagine that using heated air would melt the connector or displace the pins. Desoldering and soldering from one board to another just increases the risk. It would be a different matter with a brand new unsoldered connector.
