This discussion brings up another point....
Does it make sense to use thermal connections on vias?
Thermals were originally used on thru hole comps to increase
solderability of the leads, but now that is not necessary for SMT.
Is there any reason to use them for vias?
I've been using direct connection to the inner planes.
