I was wondering which versions of the VCS Diagnostic cart exist, including PAL?

 

I've owned 4 and they were all version 2.6 with a mask ROM inside.

What is it for? For troubleshooting purposes in case there is a problem with the cart slot?

A mask ROM really? Or an OTP? What reason would there be for Atari to make $tens of thousands worth of diagnostic cartridges?

Yes, really, perhaps the reasoning would be the fact that there were service centers all over the country and the minor fact that over 30 million 2600's were sold. :)
