Hi Laurent,

Thanks for the review.

I guess it doesn't have to. It's used inside loops and it's rather small so
I think it should be fine that way.

"Connected" is often used in context of links. We're dealing with routes
here, so I thought "routed" is appropriate to avoid confusion.

The aim here is to find all pads that are routed to another pad within the
same entity. If you remove the start pad, it becomes a task harder than
difficult.

There are two pads here. Therefore explicitly calling them something else
makes sense IMO.

I agree on the comments I didn't reply to.

Thank you!
