Looks like a filament runout sensor, and there is a tiny tiny little bit of extra filament sticking out the top right. If the print had needed a little bit more filament, it would have pulled through the sensor and the machine would have reported it had run out of filament and paused the print.
Essentially flying really fucking close to the sun and somehow making it by the skin of their teeth.

As someone who is interested in 3D printers, but doesn't have one yet: I have absolutely no clue what I'm looking at π€
