Personally I never thought to buy headlight bulbs from Home Depot.
And if you know anything about Philips/Osram xenon bulbs you'd notice that there are a TON of fakes floating around, even at reputable sources or stores. Which is why I provided a link to a store/seller who is 100% genuine bulbs
I'm sure Home Depot is sourcing their internet catalog from 3rd party places, similar to Amazon, which has been proven in the fast to have sellers providing fake bulbs.
My .02

It seems you went a little wild there, and then advised me to relax. I would recommend you take the same tonic.
While your .02 is appreciated, I see no difference in using a website unknown to me - over a nationally known store.
And yes, the link was to the spec for the product. The number purchased has nothing to do with the link until a person actually clicks to buy.
What is it about your source that guarantees they are OEM and not just puffery? Yes, I see the blurb there about counterfeits, but I also called Philips and they are the ones who recommend HD. I would hope they are on top of the issue. When I get the bulbs I can examine them and see if I can tell if they meet the authentication from the website. Best thing is, if I am not convinced, I can simply walk or drive the mile to return them to the store.
This guide may or may not be helpful - until I get the bulbs I cannot say.
