So, I am referring to comments Robert made in Lesson 5 of the Advanced PCB course, time mark 20:10, "Improve and Spread all the tracks". There you state that I should look for tracks that are too close to others. This seems odd since this should be covered by a design rule and not relegated to manual checking.

Comments?

Rules are ok for high density areas. However, if you have space on your PCB, you may want to route tracks further away.

Have a look at my videos with Eric about crosstalk, they may be interesting for this topic:
