KiCadRoutingTools (drandyhaas)ECADConfidence: Medium

The router pinned board-edge clearance to the 0.2 mm fab floor but its plane check refilled under the old 0.05 mm rule, reported GND complete, skipped the strap, and the shipped pour was split in two.

drandyhaas/KiCadRoutingTools Issue #1449: Plane-finalize oracle refills under the input project's 0.05 mm board-edge rule, not the pinned 0.2 mm, so it reports GND complete and the shipped pour is split (follow-up to #1168)
