The way I work a missing dot would get caught at LVS (layout versus
schematic), the netlists wouldn't match.


Well, yes, same here. But that doesn't help the poor guy who reads a
faded schematic and thinks, wow, I've got that 22ohms right here.

This is where the 'European' scheme wins hands down.
