One thing to consider: even if we 'fix' all the part files so that all studs render non-mirrored logos, mirrored logos can still occur. For example, if someone created (...)

The stud logos are a bonus feature offered by many programs but are not officailly supported by the LDraw spec. (...) This further supports my position on this (...)

If anyone wants to make perfect rendering with stud logos lined up correctly (how often does this occur?), I assume this person must have the knowledge to inline that part locally at (...)
