CL vs Non-CL keypad

The rep at the electronics store where I buy my gear tells me there is no reason to buy rrd-h6brl keypads now that the rrd-hn6brl keypads are available. Says the CL version can do everything the non-CL version can do and I'm covered if I ever switch to led.

Makes sense but then there must be a reason they still make the non-CL version. If they are the same price why would anyone buy the non-CL version?

The hnXrl, as per the nomenclature, require a neutral, the h6brl do not. Like the difference between a 10D dimmer and a 10ND.
