Yet again I've come across fabrication notes on other pcb designers notes that specify that thru board via's may be plated shut.
Is there any historical reason for this, or is it just hysterical?
I would be rather concerned to see a closed via that is neither blind or filled, mental images of trapped process chemistry etc.
Best Regards
