  Assuming the nice star pattern of power distribution from the source and back
will assemble itself is a lost cause, so there's no need to pre label every part with a type of power.
If you have more than one "source" of power, be sure it floats with respect to the other one
and still make one be "the one" that is the center of a star.

Some chip pins can be from filtered/locally-filtered versions of the central power, with separate
returns to the one source.

there's no DRC very good for power layout.
