So do all the Harmony remotes do that annoying thing where they have
"actions" like "Watch TV" or "Watch a DVD" that it forces you to use
or do some treat you like an adult and let you do things manually?

I think the one my dad got was a 600 series model and we both were
pulling our hair out to get it to treat us like adults. He returned it
and neither of us have looked at the Harmony line since.
