    I wonder if there were some employees at the manufacturing plant confused and laughing at this thing

    This is pretty funny

      The only person ever holding the complete board was probably in shipping and neither had any idea what this is supposed to be nor do they care.

        PCBWay actually did a sanity check on my board before production. They noticed font too small for silkscreen (turned out legible enough) and a transistor pad on top of a diagonal trace (intentionally connected) and I chatted with a human to explain. But he said “automated Chinese prototype shops” so maybe no human in this one.

          Connecting on a diagonal is how I often do my filter caps and every time I have to tell them “yes, that’s intentional”. Really free up routing
