TPD4EUSB30DQAR Pin and Layout

Hi,

For TPD4EUSB30DQAR there are 4 N.C. pins that are indicated as not normally connected in datasheet.

However, in the datasheet example of layout (page 11, section 10.2), it is illustrated that the signal trace passes through the N.C. pad.

In this case, is the N.C. pad and D+/D- pad in same connection?

Should the signal traces connect to N.C. pads in layout?

This will also affect schematic design as whether the N.C. pins should be connected to USB 3.0 signals.
