Well, shut my mouth. It appears I'm simply wrong, though I'm still baffled as to how, as I frequently watch CC at home, enabled at the set. But maybe I've made incorrect assumptions...
This explanation from HDMI.org
> The CC rendering is done at the source and not at the TV as it was with analog connections. For example, with a typical cable box the CC is enable by going to the cable box setup menu and not the TV remote's CC button. The TV remote's CC only controls the analog CC and does not control the CC for each of the HDMI source devices. CC must be enabled from each of the individual HDMI sources.
Wikipedia explains it more...

What baffles me is that this is decided NOT how I enable captions at home, though it does completely explain why SDI captions can't be sent directly to consumer set.
