G10 L1 says "This is the length of my tool"
G10 L10 says "My tool is at this position in the current coordinate
system, set the tool offsets to make that consistent with the axis
positions"

Or, looked at another way, G10 L1 is equivalent to editing the tool
table, G10 L10 is equivalent to using tool touch-off in the GUI.
