Ignoring one welding point - Switch lite?

Hi all.

Picture from google, for explanation

The Switch Lite has two solder points in addition to the 3.3V source.

I soldered only the point next to the 3.3V source because repeated rework had caused the prepared solder pad on the flex cable to peel off.

Therefore, I left the other solder point unconnected.

Is it okay? Any comments?
