Hah, you're not kidding. Literally my comment was inspired by a recent realization that it is not possible to search for a RF connector by footprint size.
That's absurd to me, it took so long to figure out which random sequence of letters was the smallest in overall PCB footprint.
Maybe we found it, we think it's the AYU2T-1B-GA-GA-ETY(HF) but sure would be nice if Digikey had a search by footprint dimensions.
Yet strangely the physical ability of a device to fit into a location you need it is not in the list of things I can search. Takes ten seconds to find the numbers -- after I download and open the PDF file.
Just so strange, but so common. And digikey is heads and shoulders above average, McMaster might be the only better one I know of at it and they're very curated.
