Reported by @gh-jmg:

Hi Juan, Using this design as a nice test for kiCad scripts, I notice a couple of things :

a) There are a few thermal vias, that have imported as parts from Altium
This gives a skew to the BOM and netlist
BOM has ~ 26 extra parts like this...
VIA** pad-via
VIA** pad-via
Netlist has 26 extra nodes
VIA**.~

BOM and Netlist will be cleaner, & need less manual cleanup, if those Thermal Vias can be swallowed into the footprints ?
