IR vs RF

[srenker]

So why is there an IR choice, when the RF code is supposedly unique?

It has to have IR anyway to control your TV. Making it IR by default also saves the installer the step of having to program the receiver ID into the remote, at least if the customer doesn't know to ask about it.
