I'm not a part author, but here's my 2cts:
Those droid legs alone have dozens of twisted quads and some non flat ones in subparts it seems.
I agree with Nicola on the should be corrected in the library point, but I don't agree on the LDraw format diss. imho it's still very efficient, we don't need to store normals as they can be calculated (assuming clean preferable bfc-ed parts etc).
There is room for improvement though, but I don't see the need to completely restart with a new format.
