Hi Scott,
I can see where a concern could arise when dealing with tight impedance designs. However, Stripping poorly oxided panels and reoxiding is pretty common place. I suspect most of us ( at least I do ) use a microetch in our oxide line and use that same microetch to strip off oxide when something goes wrong. Although not frequent, I assure with oxide, something will eventually go wrong and panels will be stripped and re-oxided.
I doubt there has been any significant problems assocaited with this process since I have seen more variation in supplied copper thickess that stripping oxide will create.
Just my thoughts.....

If a microetch is used to clean panels prior to oxide, the second pass
removes more rather than less copper. I would be very careful about multiple
passes through the oxide if microetch is present.
