This should've been effortless, not tedious. For some reason, there's no auto generator for LGA packages. There's also no such thing as the dimension tool in the world of footprint generation, and instead, the positions of the pins had to be manually calculated.

I copied the document things from the ADC footprint to try and retain consistency.

When is an AI that takes in a schematic input and produces a footprint going to exist? Doc drawings look pretty standardised... just a suggestion. Maybe even a manually coded, OCR-type thing could work.

This is the symbol:
