[theme-reviewers] get_template_part vs locate_template

[Curtis McHale]

I'm reviewing a theme and I've found uses of get_template_part where I
believe that locate_template is the proper item. Specifically the code below
loads the custom stylesheet.

<?php get_template_part('css/custom-css')?>

It was my understanding that in this case we should use:

<?php locate_template( array( '/css/custom-css.css' ), 1); ?>

and that get_template part was to call a file in the same directory like
loop-main.php. Is there established best practice and if so what is it? Is
the use above an okay way to call a custom stylesheet in to the theme? If
not what way is currently advised?
