But that DOES differentiate between .dat and .ldr by the very fact it
has the extension in parts.lst. If it didn't, 3010.dat and 3010.ldr
would be interchangeable everywhere.

This means that 3010.dat is NOT the same as 3010.ldr but L3P appears to
think they are regardless of path/location. 3010.ldr is not a (current)
lego part and should not be treated as such.

I don't think L3P pays any attention to parts.lst.  To be honest, I don't think
that it should.  It's not an editor that's expected to give you a list of parts
available for use.  (And to be honest, I think that parts.lst is a generally bad
idea, because the user is expected to update it, which isn't user-friendly.)
