I rarely examine these things in my head before first tests. I'm a - stick it on - shoot - see what it looks like - how it handles - sort. always a KISS sort of fellow - with just a bit more interest in the technical than Ted. If there's a "problem" - that's when I start thinking about it and testing variations. Not at all sure what the IR / Lens detection setting actually does with a RAW DNG file.
