You cannot stick parts with studs in the bottom tubes, 'cause these
plates (2x8, 4x8 and 6x8) don't have bottom tubes.
Their functionality is less then the later created plates.
The difference in functionality between these plates is bigger
than the difference in functionality between the variants of
part 4085 for example (and I am happy with all variants of this
part 4085 available in LDraw)

Thanx for this answer.
Now I can prepare my 2x2 lightbricks for being uploaded to the
parts tracker (yes I know, the PT is offline, but it will get online
sometime)
