Acid-Traps - how to avoid them? (was: Something new and old)

 

Hi, there, Hello, Heikki!

I just had a look at the video at https://youtu.be/G1YCu2daNww posted from Heikki
and was wondering if it is possible to avoid Acid-Traps [1] as shown in your example.
I've marked these in the attached picture.

Usually, the PCB tools take special care how to exit a pad with a trace avoiding these acute corners and
have some design- and first corner rules.

Regards,

Clemens
