So I am working on a remodel and I disconnected a light fixture and I found three cables into a junction box where a neutral was connected to two of the hot wires. The hot and neutral pigtails you see in the picture were being used to power the light. Why wouldn't all of the hot and neutral wires be connected together with pigtails to power the light? I don't understand why this isn't a direct short. Assuming this wiring is incorrect do I fix it by connecting hot to hot, neutral to neutral?
