Prefer large corner pins for a larger or heavier board, substantial attached cooling hardware, or equipment expected to be inserted into and extracted from workcells repeatedly. The custom electronic load is such a repeated-use tool. Medium pins remain an option for compact, light assemblies with a compatible user scaffold. Document board dimensions, attached mass and leverage, handling frequency, selected pin/socket parts and the reason for the choice. Do not silently default every board to medium. -This is a qualitative design policy, not a measured strength or endurance rating. No universal board-size, mass or mating-cycle cutoff is established here; do not invent one or promise a cycle life.

Retention figures are standard-clip numbers until our contacts are pull-tested, and no mating-cycle life is rated.  Recheck XY grid and actual socket locations, pin shoulder/tail seating, native footprint pads/drills, connector edge access, and the complete assembly envelope when changing size. Synchronize schematic, BOM, native PCB, STEP/GLB and footprint metadata. Re-run electrical, thermal, manufacturing and probing gates affected by the revision. Large corner pins do not establish compatibility with the probing tether's medium ground pin: retain a free matching ground contact unless that head/socket fit has separately been verified.
