There are companies that have produced plated through holes with Aspect
Ratio (A/R)of 10-12 in FR4 boards without via reliability problems. It is
the process technology that is the limiting factor and not the A/R of via
for a given board thickness.
For any size via, the via drilling, seeding of via walls, copper plating
uniformity and copper adhesion to barrel walls and type of plated copper
is more critical than a rule of thumb.
