Hi travis,
Thanks for LDView,
Each part is carefully reviewed by volunteers in Parts Tracker.
That means if a part says CERTIFY you can be pretty confident regarding its
usage of BFC-ed primitives. I think errors are still possible with non-BFCed
primitives usage. Because usage of non-BFCed primitives requires much more
attention to be validated. And reviewer attention is pretty high but
certainly not unlimited.
Of course if a part, like this one, says NOCERTIFY, then my reviewing
attention regarding BFC is naturally lowered to a nearly 0 level.
As a medecine: just report in the LDView error/warning window.
This is the best way for such errors to quickly disappear, as LDView is a
popular tool for part reviewers.
