Straddling Fanout Junction

Gallery / Inter-section Routing

A fan-out junction boxed in by a packed cell-mate on its exit side, whose targets straddle it (one adjacent, one far down-and-left). The divergent branch peels off to the left, hops the band below the source row across to a clear column, and drops through the inter-row gap into the far target, rather than the junction trapping it into a canvas-bottom dive past the cell-mate (#1396).
