It allows the button to interface with a conductive contact on the control board, registering an input when pressed. Over time, these pads can accumulate dirt, dust, oils, and wear down, leading to unresponsive and overall less consistent inputs. Accessing these pads and cleaning/replacing them can potentially resolve these problems.
