I believe that's because searching for "whip" returns a match from the
unofficial parts. Since an unofficial match is made, the lookup doesn't go on
to examine the official parts.
The Lookup was intended as a tool to assist PT users. So it's primarily focused
on searching the unofficial parts. The cross-reference to the official parts is
intended as a help in the case where the primary search has failed.
