Thank you all for your clarification. I guess there is a chance that adding a logo to every stud or part that requires one could cause a slowdown during display, although most home machines would have progressed in computational power since the initial creation of the LDraw system.
And, as Steffen said, it would be time-consuming to check all existing parts.
I have requested reviewer access and, when it is granted, will certainly do my best to review what I can. (My LDraw knowledge is not as in depth as a lot of existing Parts Tracker reviewers.)
Is there a chance that this is likely to change? Although programs like LDView can superimpose stud logos on instances of stud.dat, there are wheel rims/hubs that have the logo which LDView does not display. I know it's currently personal preference, but I'm a fan of the studs logos showing where they should.
I've certainly noticed this when researching stud orientation for LGEO parts. The oddest example I found was the yellow part shown here.
And, as Steffen said, it would be time-consuming to check all existing parts.
