| TIP: If pin 6 isn't available, you can use any other open `GND` pin to connect the black wire. If pin 2 isn't available, you can use any other 5V pin to connect the red wire, such as pin 4. |

I'm not sure if this TIP makes sense for the Touch Display 2, given that the red and black wires are in a fixed 3-pin block, and (unlike Touch Display 1) can't be relocated to arbitrary other pins.

Very true! But theoretically someone could yank them out, or they could connect the 3-pin block to another set of pins that fulfills these criteria. Perhaps I should change this to instead point at another valid set of pins where you could possibly attach the 3-pin block?

Ah, i see that there's no other physical place where the 3-pin block satisfies this requirement. I'll leave this alone for now but I'm open to idea about how to improve it -- if you still feel like it's worth removing, happy to do that, but I feel like we should probably make it clear that 5V/GND are the only requirements.
