In fact I'd go further and say it's unintuitive not to use the +1 channels as alternatives.
Windows Media Centre does this wonderfully. If there are clashes then it will look across all channels to find another showing that it will then schedule to record. If it cannot find another showing within the the current guide data (it has a fortnights worth) then it remembers what show(s) it cannot record and if they are repeated in the future then they get scheduled to record.
