Sure - although what I was rather indirectly getting at - is that even
for passives which you might "think" you could make the two pins
equivalent - there are sometimes cases where it helps to make it
explicit.

OTOH, I don't like having to go back and fix my schematic just because I
decided to rotate a resistor on my board (so the pick + place file puts
the resistors so the stripes read in the right order).

Perhaps this is something fabs are smart enough to realise.. that a 0
and 180 degree noted resistor are equivalent, so its best to align
left-align the start of colour bands.


Best wishes,

Peter C.
