Agree. If you are the design authority and known the limits of the application environment. The only danger is someone in thye future will copy it without such a knowledge. Open a coomon law is the danger.

Subject: [TN] Gold/Tin Intermetallics, why are we afraid?
These infamous IMCs are like parias or ghosts in most people's mind in our
business. I shocked our production guys recently by giving the advice to let
the boards go on. Large crystals and bad looking. But I always try to avoid
exaggerations. If no serious temp changes are predicted, nor any severe
power switching, why rework and risk introducing failures? The actual
components were very hard to rework, the cost had been unacceptable. I can
see many of you get the coffee wrong. I don't mean to spread quality
distractions, I talk about very few boards and a unique situation. My
statement was based on the fact that a gold tin intermetallic bond is
extremly strong and can last long, if not exposed to what I pointed at
earlier. I expect to be hammered down in the shop floor until only the nose
is visible....
