Sorry, my mistake. I think someone suggested the change, and I must have taken it for an official decision.
I have no idea who suggeted the name change, only that I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now. My 33062 looks like
this:

0 Scala Plate  4 x  4
0 Name: 33062.dat
0 Author: Tore Eriksson
0 Un-Official LCad updated file

0 Rev 2: Changed Scala Stud filename from stud5 to studsc

...

1 16 20 0 20 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 studsc.dat

That explains. (I had to download complete.zip to be sure).

No, it shouldn't. That would spoil the option of primitive substitution and also bring up wrong text on top of the stud when
using l3p set to hi-q.

For that reason, we probably should have a special primitive for Duplo studs (as you previously did), not a scaled-up stud4.dat as I suggested (and as I used in my recent Duplo parts).
