Likely not an explanation. Even the best components occasionally fail. I've seen similar partial failures like that.
Looks to me like one diode completely failed, oddly enough in the exact spot on the board, on both strips.... Inside those strips, the diodes are "wired" together in combinations of series, and parallel mini circuits, that's why a majority of the diodes are still running at full strength, and will likely be unaffected.
You won't be the first guy running a DIY build with a few diodes out.
