I have a follow-up question.

What led me to writing that last post was that I have collected many samples
of fab drawing notes as part of my working with the IPC-2610 series
committee, and I noticed that the MAJORITY of them call out both IPC-6011
and IPC-6012, so I thought I was onto something.

I' m trying to figure out why people are specifying things that are already
part of IPC-6012. For example, many people have a Bow and Twist note on
their fab drawings, but the maximum allowance they are calling out exactly
matches the one in 6012 (which in my mind, if its already in there, you
don't need to call it out separately, right?)

So my follow-up question is:
"Why do people do that?"
