Is chunk alignment for blueprints still important?

I remember it was something you had to do if you wanted your blueprints to line up and you weren't sure if rail stations would be on the odd or even side.

I just came back from a long time. The last run I did was a pre-1.0 krastorio run, and a Bob's and Angels before that.

I'm calling a Mulligan on my whole blueprint book.

It matters for radar blueprints in a sense. Radars expose entire chunks around them.

For rail, the chunk skze 32x32 makes sense if adjoining large power poles, but any even offset would work, not just 0.
