I think the technology (radio frequency the GDOs operate on) changed sometime between 2010-2011.
When I had to buy a new GDO a few years ago...when searching as to why the darn UGDO (Homelink) refused to program...it was a lot of 2010/2011 threads that kept rising to the top of the results about programming issues.
Then I started seeing info about the frequency change on some GDOs around that time which lead me to old BMWs requiring the use of a "bridge" (Homelink Repeater) to facilitate the old UGDOs communicating with the updated frequencies the newer GDOs were operating on.
