Lyle-

Yep, you are correct. The run of the mill assembly houses will have
issues with via-in-pad designs (the solder getting sucked down the via
hole is the main issue). The high-techy shops that assemble workstations
and server PCB's finally figured out how to do it consistently, but
needed to go through $ome $pecial $teps and proce$$e$ to be $uccessful.
(like plugging vias, using extra small via drills, etc....)
