I’d assume it’s best to drill your holes before you anneal? Since the stiffer the part is the more likely it is to crack? Can’t find solid answer anywhere.

    Drilling is simply a necessity caused by typical fdm printing. The top is going to bridge so will sag unless using support material with 0 z height. Even then, it won’t stop the layer stepping and drilling is needed to get as close to a perfect hole as possible for pins to fit as best as they can.
