synth (absmach)ECADConfidence: Medium

An AI-generated 24 V to 3.3 V buck board is going on a public showcase page that says plainly it is not fabricated or tested, has no expert sign-off, and that synth check --fab disagrees with the published FreeRouting record. Two parts have no registry sign-off, and the board needs filled and capped via-in-pad.
