It is quite possible that one number is for transparent bricks and the other
is for regular solid ABS. IIRC they are different molds. The LDraw parts
library tries to be as inclusive as possible.

Indeed, while opaque parts are made from ABS, thansparent ones use
polycarbonate. These plastics have different behaviour that require slightly
different molds to get the tight tolerances you appreciate from LEGO bricks...
