> This meant you had to carefully find each capacitor by its reference and move it to where it needed to be - often it was packed somewhere completely irrelevant.

1. Draw bypass caps for every IC as its separate space on schematic (also declutters the schematics that way)

2. Group them together on PCB then just... drag one (or two if you have say 100n + 1n) each to each IC.

Alternative is 0 ohm resistor (net tie footprint) before every power line so the cap and IC are on separate netlit
