30035.dat uses stud.dat in a location that isn't really a stud, but is the

(Notice the LEGO logo peeking out from under the pole.)

Is the above considered wrong?

As far as I remember this is formally ok. But you are right, this should be
avoided. Please correct that and send the file to the PT.

Perhaps if there was a unit capped cylinder in the primitives authors would not
be driven to use studs?

You are right, but there are only three lines of code (easily created with
MLCad) that would be substituted with such a new primitive. I think it is not
worth.
