That's pretty routine in the upper tiers of the
US and European pwb fab industry with
immersion/electroless outerlayer finishes. If
that outerlayer is finished with hard
(electrolytic) gold finish then you'll likely
need to keep it to 4.5 to 5 mil min spacing.
If this is volume design to be built in a
commoditized environment (offshore) then the
answer changes and the constraints are
different. If an offshore uVia fab then probably
get it though they will likely panel plate again
and planarize (not button plate). .
If a commodity pure PTH fab offshore then they
are unlikely to have any via fill capability
whatsoever (s/m plugging yes, via fill no).
