My question is, what the hell is that black thing and can I request a different STB due to being, in effect, downgraded? I didn't even get a new remote with it!

My guess would be that it is an analogue pass-thru to enable your
TV to receive channels 1-5 from the NTL cable.
None of the new NTL boxes have audio out connections (although you could get a Scart break-out box to fit any of them).
