WTF, Nespresso PCB is Unsafe Hot Mess

I like to repair electronics. I don't know what it says about me that I am not sure if I should be frustrated when something breaks or.... excited. Here is a Nespresso mini C30 which operates with a 120V AC power source. It’s from the U.S.A and it was plugged into a 240V power source by mistake. The resulting power surge left the control board a hot mess and exposed what I suspect to be an unsafe design by the manufacturer. They used a tracked fuse, which is a small path of copper on the surface or the controller board, under some of the other components. A tracked fuse will melt and catch on fire when it has too much power going through it. It’s like a fuse on the circuit board that is free. But why make an appliance which is used in a consumer’s home that’s made to catch on fire in the event of a failure?
