Though you might be right, that seems counterintuitive.

I have two 2nd gen. LH cars sitting in my driveway that use fobs of the 
same part number.  If I took the fob of car no. 1 and followed the 
programing procedure using car no. 2 and its fob, then both fobs would 
control car no. 2, and car no. 1 would no longer respond to either.  If 
what you're saying is true (that it is the car's computer that gets 
programed), that doesn't sound possible.  Or would in fact both cars 
respond to what was car no. 1's fob after the reprograming?
