I hope you tell us what they are trying to accomplish with this requirement once you find out.  I'm curious to know what's behind it.  Maybe they just mean no traces under discrete caps or something.

Subject: [DC] Traces and vias under components

Guys,

We have a customer which we are designing a mostly SMT board for that 
requires all traces and vias not to be under components. This would also 
include any planes being under the components. I guess in the past they had 
a board designed by some else that had a shorting problem with traced and 
vias under the components. They are insistence that this is the way it has to 
be. Has anyone else had experience with this sort of demands? This is not for 
space, military, high voltage, high vibration or a medical application. Can 
anyone think of anything we could tell they to change their mind?

Thank you, 
wheels
