How were "Ben day Dots" drawn traditionally in older comics?

Despite looking into it, I couldn't find specifically how these are drawn on traditional ink illustrations. Some say a stencil is used, others say they straight up draw the dots one by one. Is it a mix? Is it done with an airbrush gun? Also, I've seen characters shaded with these dots, but only on the characters themselves and not the whole page. How is that done, to stay within the illustration so precisely, and with such fine/tiny dots? Is it a "pro" thing? This could have a super obvious answer, but I'm still not certain if my suspicions are true and wanna make sure.
