Preferred Order Known Networks​

I came across some data on my MacBook Pro that logged a particular known network had been removed from the preferred order. The date of this occurred when I was in a different state entirely. I had all my apple devices with me. I didn't take any particular action that im aware of to initiate this on my end (like resetting etc). AND when I checked the known networks in my settings, that network name is still there, the same way it was. So I want to know definitively if possible what exactly would have had to occur? Ex If the owner of the wifi network reset his router, would I have gotten this notification for instance? I imagine that can't be because why wouldn't this logged info be true for all of my other former/saved known networks...Please help clarify this. Thank you!!!


See context below:

Would help if you provided the full path and name of the file containing the configuration example.
