    Properties

    Define keepout regions for nets HB100_IF, SDA, and SCL such that their routing remains clear of plane splits and power/ground transitions. No polygon or split shall cross these net routes as traced between their connections. This applies to L2 (GND) and L3 (power) plane boundaries, with a margin sufficient to avoid splits under all conditions.
