And 3011.dat is named Duplo Brick  2 x  4

It's no big issue, but isn't it strange that with Duplo, we count the studs of
that system, but with Scala, we translate the measures into standard Lego
studs... :)

Scala is kind of odd -- Scala 'flower studs' are double-sized, but parts
like the 'brick 1 x 1 x 2/3 round with tabs' have System studs.  And
Scala flower-studs interlock with System-style anti-studs (the tubes on
the underside of parts).  Scala flower-studs are the same height as
standard System studs.  So there's a mix of regular and doubled scale.
In this case, I think it's better to use the standard scale, instead of
using the double-sized scale.
