Does it have to be just one or another? What’s wrong with development and progression, options, why decide only one way is possible? A few years back I happened to mention here a “follow-me-router”, which was a function – to be used if you like or not use it if you dislike it (a personal option) – also that in an early version of Cadsoft Eagle ("Follow Me" (wish list)). That topic was not very hot here which is ok for sure but it was posted by the same reason as this topic – the possibility of something, not to force everyone to use and accept it. Even if this follow-me router may have generated a lot of, not preferable, via holes in the first place it may have been a good starter for making a PCB pretty fast, to be post-optimised if wanted. For sure I like the KiCad software and many of its functions – it’s a great tool which can be even more useable, more safe and even more versatile! Thanks.
