I don't like that style either, but is this a common style for "service manual" type schematics - where the user is likely to be tracing a connection on a chip?
When debugging my own PCB I find it quite convenient to have the components viewed as their physical packages. I even find it convenient to have the components in the schematic placed in about the same way as the components are placed on the PCB. And, quess what, I find it nice to have the schematic connections approximately follow the routing of the PCB. This calls for a new schematic generated _after_ the PCB has been made. I guess this work could be done automagically based on placement information from the PCB program. I don't think it is possible without more tight integration of schematic capture and PCB layout program.
