I've heard of people burning up clutch cables and speedometer cables that way, on other cars. And radio transceivers...in amateur radio installations it's common to wire both the positive and negative connections directly to the battery, to minimize noise pickup. If the battery-to-chassis ground strap falls off, it's possible for the starter to find a new ground path through the radio's negative power lead and the radio chassis. It's common to fuse both the positive and negative wires, to protect the radio from this scenario.
"Sneak circuits" like this will drive you crazy, sometimes.
