In The Unicode Standard Version 3.0, the Latin small letters d l and t with
caron (U+010F, U+013E, U+0165) are actually shown with a trailing apostrophe
(d', l', t'). On each character there is the following note:

the form using apostrophe is preferred in typesetting

However, the Latin capital letter L with caron (U+013D) is shown with an
apostrophe (L') but no note. The Latin capital letters D and T with caron
(U+010E, U+0164) show proper carons and notes that the preferred form is
with a caron (hacek).

Which is the preferred form, L with an actual caron or L with an apostrophe?
And should there not be a note on capital L like there is on small l? (The
note on small l does not say that it applies to capital L also.)
