: Most component manufacturer's recommended land pattern use the Nominal dimensions for the Thermal Pad size. This is probably the most important reason

−GT3 The reasons you list above are a good argument to use nominal values. I find it surprising why manufacturer would recommend EP pad size larger than max value

interface and this is a defective condition. The reasoning of why this may be happening on only a few pads of a particular component is most likely due to the heat sinking characteristics of the pad/land area

. Solder joint strength is based upon many things, such as size of pad/land, amount of solder, excursion through the thermal zone, plating integrity of the component and the board, etc
: Why did the IPC change the barrel fill requirement for Class 2 in J-STD-001 Revision F? Revision E allowed 50% when there was a thermal plane. Now, Rev. F states 75
