Well there are pros and con. If you cross hatch you can create acid traps
that can cause you problems in develop after print. If you use solid plane
and your prep before solder mask is not sound  you can get contamination
under the mask like water spots.

Subject: [TN] Crosshatch vs Solid Fill


We are having some discussion of the pros/cons of crosshatch vs. solid fill
for copper ground planes on surface layers of multilayer boards.  Perhaps
someone can help me with some answers.

Is there a discernable difference in soldermask adhesion?
Does the extra copper detract from reflow or rework operations?
Is there a difference in board warp susceptibility?
Why would an electrical guy want one vs. the other?
