Although over-etching is a possible/likely suspect I wonder about
the vias. Like myself, they're quite small but perfectly formed. When
I initially saw the thinness of the tracks I half-expected the vias to
be flimsy too, but they aren't. All speculation, I'll have to front up at
the bh tomorrow and find out

Are you sure ? Not saying you're wrong, but I couldn't org this board
smaller than 4 x 3.125, to be a final size of 4 x 2.4. I had to lay down
a border of  t  b and vRestrict areas to limit the router sideways. Don't
do a lot of boards for production, virtually everything I use is few-off
hand-mades, so I'm not au fait with every aspect of Eagle. If you can
point out what I've overlooked (Eagle Light remember) that would be
appreciated
