So using ALWOBJDIF(*FILELVL) is like *ALL but no 0001's created?

Yes, but for database *FILE objects only. See "Database Files" in Table 1, in the following documentation describing "File is renamed on the system" and "Member is renamed on the system" for ALWOBJDIF(*ALL) and the alternate effect for ALWOBJDIF(*FILELVL) [with note 4: "Only applies to RSTLIB and RSTOBJ commands with ALWOBJDIF(*FILELVL)" whereby SAVRSTOBJ source activity is SAVOBJ and target activity is RSTOBJ]:

When you restore an object, the system takes different actions depending on several conditions.

An object on this system is like a container. The object has information about the container itself, such as the owner of the object and the last time it was saved. This is the information you see when you display the object description (DSPOBJD command). The object also has contents, such as the records in a database file
The advantage that ALWOBJDIF(*FILELVL *AUTL *OWNER *PGP) has over ALWOBJDIF(*ALL) is that in addition to allowing all object differences, it attempts to restore physical files when the file level ID or member level ID of the physical file on the system is different from that for the physical file on the save media.

Table 1 shows examples of the effect of the ALWOBJDIF parameter.
