If it were one of my clients they'd want milled chamfers top and bottom on the periphery and all holes.

Plus what they want and where they want it.
RE: [I need a 1/16", 1/8" and 1/4" diameters]....Given in fractions is a big help.
Something worth learning is how to get your customers parts efficiently. In some cases that may mean you don't actually cut anything...
Why is he getting parts 90% done and adding one hole? Why not have them mill everything. Or better yet why not get them laser cut complete? A fiber laser will cut one of these faster than you could load/unload a part even with a slick toggle clamp fixture, and he will be able to get more parts/sqft of sheet saving money, and sheet is probably cheaper to begin with than barstock, if that's what he is getting that sawn and pre drilled...

I modify a switch plate cover.
Edit: Forgot to mention.. you're right. If you can give your customer a suggestion that will save them $$$$.
It usually comes back to you.
