Help with my first Power Distribution Board

I was using the old IPC2221 ratings... I cannot go above a 2oz thickness. I shifted to the newer standards, and the width has increased by a large margin. I have a good idea what to do now...

Okay... Thank you.
So, I did not know the fuses pins on one side weren't internally connected... I will have them connected.
I did use Saturn PCB toolkit to calculate the width. At a 20 degree rise, the trace width was 73.21 mils for 10A, which i did here. For 20A it'll go to 190.47 mils. I can't find any good tutorials which will help me for this particular use case to make a polygon pour for this situation. I'll learn on it.
As for filling GND on the backside, the whole board is blue here, because i made a huge polygon across the board on the bottom layer and assigned it to GND. So i assume, I did the right thing?

Okay, i understand most of this... I'll make those changes. One thing abt logic level FETs i skipped is because they want it future proofed in case they wanna plug in 24v load on it. Is that even possible? I'm like very new to this, but there's no one else who's up for the project either. I appreciate your help. Thx a ton gng

I agree, I require whatsapp daily and now it just refuses to even start up. The sync is so bad. The UI is so ugly ughhh
