A hard short at the output of the TPS249x during normal operation could result in activation of the enable or UVLO circuit instead of the current limit if the input voltage droops sufficiently. The lower GATE drive in this condition will cause a prolonged, larger over-current spike. This can be eliminated by filtering EN, or distributing capacitance on the bus itself. Capacitance from adjacent plugged-in units may help with this as well.
