On a "snap action" switch remaining in the off position would

The ones I've seen are not switch failures, but balancing the switch at
the point where the spring forces are equal.

BTW, I could duplicate the situation here, although it took a few tries
to get one of the switches in the middle position that it's not supposed
to be in.
