I agree and disagree with this.
I agree that it would be good (for now) if L3P only substituted LGEO parts
for files with a .dat extension. Or, even better, if (a) the file being
substituted has the UNOFFICIAL/LDRAWORG meta-statement and states it is a
part or (b) is located in the ldrawparts directory.
I disagree because the dat and ldr extensions do not indicate the type of
content in the file (except that it’s an LDraw file). I imagine if we ever
break backwards compatibility in the part library, we’ll switch all the files
to .LDR extensions.

Isn’t there an official order of preference for where a file comes from (eg.
check MPD firsrt, directory second and parts directory third)? If so then the
most sensible way of processing would be to go through that, which would ensure
no problems with meta commands or extensions. If not, then there probably should
be.
Just my thoughts,
Tim
