I noticed the same.

The sensor/ eye? or whatever it is among the buttons makes it's presence consistent among the newer models ( Ref 5se, Ref Phono 2se ). I'm just guessing but is it intended to address some issues with related to inappropriate remote command response issues?

I have no problems with the original plastic remote that came with the Ref Anniversary. However, I also have a metal remote for it similar to the one ARC introduced for the Ref 5SE and that one has the LED sank further in the body, resulting in a more limited usable angle (I have my preamp on the side of the listening position rather than in the front). The opening in the faceplate for the sensor receiver might help in that respect.
