JLCPCB tip: if you're designing a board with a lot of extended library parts, the part loading fees on Economic PCBA can stack up pretty fast.
their Standard PCBA service charges loading fees for all parts, including parts in the basic library, but the per-line fee is much lower.
what you can do is make a board variant with a single 0201 resistor that's DNP on one variant and placed on the other. if you run the quote with the 0201 placed, it'll force Standard PCBA so you can compare pricing.
