kicad-scripted-pcb (YORROY123)ECADConfidence: Medium

Scripted KiCad board: bounding boxes would have moved 20 reference labels that were not touching anything, so the script uses real glyph shapes. Twelve silk-edge warnings stay because deleting the footprint lines swaps them for 6 lib_footprint_mismatch errors, and a DRC severity-ignore rule had no effect on that check.
