I agree. I've also found that navigating a list or combo box is reliably done with the up and down arrow keys, whereas radio buttons sometimes use left and right arrow and other times up and down arrow. If I guess wrong, then I may move to another control and have to navigate back to the set of radio buttons. Also, some screen readers mistakenly identify checkboxes as radio buttons, apparently because the graphic indicators are not standard.
