I'd like to see this discussion reach other "keepers of lego part names", at

Point taken - thanks.

Unless I've missed something, we've never had a part title which included LDU.
I believe we've only measured in studs, brick-heights, and millimeters.

To clarify: that includes "local" units, i.e., stud and brick height
measurements are relative to the system (Primo, Duplo, System, etc.) of the
parts being described (with the curious exception of part 33029).


The curious case of 33029 was discussed here
<http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=10339> with a good argument to stick with "system
scale" for Scala parts.
