[BioC] how to annotate Illumina HumanHT-12 v3 chips?

Hi,

For sake of discussion/pedagogy, when you say:

In this scenario, which probe is "best" -- is it the one with the
largest IQR, or the smallest?

Assuming both probes map uniquely to the genome, both of which are (as
far as we know) "probing" the same gene of interest, what are some
"sound" reasons to pick one over the other?
