Additionally, being the static-sensitive nature of the parts and their small size, it makes inventory easier for us. And for myself, my eyesight is such that I can't even see well enough (at age 40) to solder SMD anymore on a tight board. In the last production run, we had one or two defects, and that was difficult for me to fix: I can't imagine having to solder all the pins and doing it successfully. Dave: I have a small number of unstuffed boards as overages from the last production run. If people really want to do all the SMD stuff, order a few extra parts and we can package up the unstuffed boards to people who like eyestrain and/or have their own wave-soldering systems.
