i've got a 144 pin PQFP 0.5mm pitch
there are only a small number of connected pins, maybe a dozen or so
excluding power
i am thinking about deleting a lot of unused pads to possibly open up
top side routes and reduce inspection and bridging concerns
am i crazy?
do you think the leads will short thru the solder mask to traces below?
is this good practice even if i don't run traces there, i.e. will it
solder and align properly with missing pads?
