Since there is no hard and fast "rule" about patterns for grounding electrical circuitry with respect to a circuit or circuits, per se, it can and does happen that chasses or parts of chasses/circuits are not grounded along with the "main" circuit, itself, in various components or groups of components, or a "loop" might be created by one or another grounding configuration. In any case, I can imagine a situation where adding grounded shields better grounds a chassis/circuit, as opposed to "merely" performing the singular task of shielding the line from stray EMI. Not to say this did happen in Miab's case; but it might have.
