Typically the goal is to protect conductive surfaces, and board edges don't often have conductive surfaces (and if they do, they might need to stay exposed).
If you have seen the board edges coated it is probably a result of the method that was used to coat them (spraying or dipping), not because it was required.

We received CCA's from a supplier and noticed that the edges were not coated. Our thinking thus far is that since our drawing does not state that coating on the edge is optional or not required, it would be required.
