Interestingly, the new revC1 part (which has been retrofitted to this revC0 unit to the left, on the B side) does not have this problem, at least at whatever level the I/Os naturally float to when disconnected and powered at 3.3V.

What did you use to take this video? Looking for a FLIR cam, but every single one I found was **slightly** over budget

It's the original/old Seek Thermal.

It is typical for CMOS inputs to oscillate and increase power consumption when not driven. Always pull up/down or set as outputs unused pins!
-
I'm not sure if it was oscillating or just just leaking through the input buffer. It's one of those things I learned like 15 years ago, but never had the chance to observe in such an obvious fashion :-)

Floating inputs may amplify noise and keep the gate switching instead of still, which usually draws more power.
-
I don't think external noise causing switching accounts for this (~20mA consumption). It's more likely input buffers that are in an intermediate state and conducting across the supply rail.
