So much for all the other designs

Why is the “power” button on the LodgeNet TV remote control on the bottom of the remote?  Sure, it’s green, but it’s relatively small as compared to the large, round “menu” and “order” buttons at the top of the remote.

Why is the design of the remote control that you find in just about every hotel different that the paradigm of just about every remote control found in your home?  So much for that “home away from home” feeling.
