TPS61253: Pad Layout Question

Part Number: TPS61253

Hello,

The datasheet for the TPS61253 calls out a paste aperture design that is slightly odd to us. It recommends that it should be square with rounded corners, not just a round aperture. We are using another device very similar to this one, YFF0030, that is a very similar package, just a higher ball count and subsequent increased dimensions.

Can you explain the thinking is behind this aperture design suggestion? Thank you!

Regards,
Ryan B.
