I posed that question to Garmin and a number of people who I thought would know.The Garmin Support team folks were not sure and had a variety of guesses. A few 'in the know' people I asked thought along the lines of my guess - that is, some sort of vibration or harmonic dampener from the rudder cables to the yaw servo. Not so technical, but a safety device.
