It's a simple byproduct of the way they wire their switching jacks, nothing
special or patentable about it. Lots of mixers do this. If it were wired 
the
other way around (so that the ring & sleeve were the "send", like some of 
the
older British boards) it'd be easy to make an "insert tap" cable where you 
just
connect a wire across the tip & ring (connecting them for the mixer, and 
tapping
them to whatever you send it to).
