I don't know... it would have to be someone who's really good with Kicad... (...strokes beard...)

I think we should ideally not get into the realm of having different value capacitors on each pin, if only because it gravely offends my sense of symmetry. (I was the kind of child who, if I accidentally snapped a propeller blade off a model aeroplane, would snap the rest off to make it look uniform again).

If the circuit diagram has four identical capacitors on A8-A11, people won't question that. If we have one oddball value you can guarantee we'll get questions about that until the end of time, just as you would if you decided to make one pullup resistor of eight a different value to the rest.
