Well, I do not want to jump in to conclussions but,

Components will be a little hard to many DIY builders to work with and will be a real task to place a SMD dsPIC on the board in the right way.
Having in consideration how often the microprocessor get blown by any circumstances, the replacing will be difficult if this are NOT socketed.
Or, Are you planning to provide the control PCBs with the passive components already installed?
