Different style of CNC pocket hole

I love CNC manufacturing but when using round mill bits, pocket holes are necessary for carving out interior shapes for component interfaces. Although not ugly, the pocket holes can ruin clean lines and always seem like a compromise. So I’ve been exploring ways of making them appear more attractive and integrating them into the design.
