Same here. If you do not use it, why do you care a

If copper is left behind because of manufacturing, it doesn't really impact the
layout process or connectivity checking.
Sure does if it is DRC rule close -- it could be short in etching process
results.

If no-net copper is connected to a net, it automatically becomes
some-net copper. The current issue with pcb: You need to toggle
enforce_DRC to do the

Possible reasons:
* the pcb will be done by milling. (as opposed to etching)
* a logo in copper contains portions not connected to anything
* text in copper contains lots of i
