Let me re-phrase that, so that my own idea is more clear:
If a SINGLE and large rad patch is a blend of colors from various points/objects
in the scene-- which I *think* is the case, depending on other rad settings--
and if one of those COLORS happens to be pure black, then maybe the entire
'blend' for that patch is reduced to black(?).
Of course, in a typical radiosity scene with a reasonable 'count' value, there
are lots of overlapping patches on objects-- so it might be difficult to
tease-out this blackening effect, if it's indeed happening.
