I disagree, I find it to be the oposite of what you are saying.
The BOM should be generated from within pcbnew as this is the last time you can
change or add the parts on the design.
You’ve never changed a resistor or capacitor value after bringing up a
first-article board?
Also, if there are symbols on the schematic that doesn't have a footprint they
have nothing to do on the list of materials that should be ordered.
What about heatsinks that attach to TO-220 packages?
You put non-board-mounted heatsinks on the schematic? How about screws, cases,
and labels? I would think you would have a separate BOM for that kind of stuff
anyhow...
