My instinct suggests they’re probably reserved, but I need to confirm they’re indeed reserved. If they’re reserved, snapping them off shouldn’t break anything. I found a very affordable replacement part, though the pins are fixed, so checking the pinout helped verify the connections. I also wondered about VDDQ—though I’m not sure if it’s redundant. It seems likely it wouldn’t matter if it were affected, but I want to be sure.

It seems to relate to power settings for memory and a specific component name. The RSVD stands for reserved, likely indicating a configuration setting. More details can be found in the NVIDIA developer forums discussion about Xavier NX schematics.

Hope the reserved pin E33 isn't essential. Otherwise, the rest of the pin issues seem like extra pins such as vtt, vcc, and vss. The remaining broken pins are AE-AJ11 and U7, so it should be fine unless that specific reserved pin matters.
