Comparison: this is Renesas' style of schematic drawing. My design is heavily borrowing from this. But not from the style.

I tried to address both comments

Pins renumbered as caught by [mention:7ac0e16090954ddfa5ac0f03fa891723:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] .

[mention:a5312e9762dd4699ba5d3876da34ffe5:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] , related to the yellow lines (silkscreen):
I created some more space for the pads - haven't measured yet, but will check for the clearance with the pads.
For the line width: I adapted this part from one of the stock-KiCAD footprints. Almost all parts use that same width...

I like parts separated into functional blocks, although it often means re-drawing blocks according to the requirements of each new design.

I can't be sure, but the yellow component outline looks much too thin and much too close to the copper pads.

Most pcb houses struggle with silk screen features less than 0.15 mm line width and pad to silk screen gaps of less than 0.15 or 0.2mm.

But it may not be correctly scaled on the footprint pictures.

Is FSM1LPS pin numbering correct?
