I've already made it very clear exactly what heaters I'm talking about. Read through the posts if your question is not rhetorical. If you haven't bothered to read, then I assume you don't really care for the answer.
With the heaters I buy, the infrared option is an extra expense, not cheaper. In New York, non-vented 28,000 BTU propane heaters are allowed and common. Infrarad model is around $200, and non-infrared "Blue Flame" model is $170.
I can't speak for why all other buyers get them. I like infrared for heating objects instead of entire rooms. I used them in the barn for new-born goats, when air-temps are below zero. Impossible to heat the rooms, but the infrared DOES heat the young animals.
At home, we use them rooms normally kept cold. When we DO want to sit in them, we can turn on the infrared heater and get warm instantly, instead of waiting for the entire room to heat up.
At our Deere dealership, we installed big infrared heaters on the ceilings, pointed down on us. That enabled us to keep somewhat warm, even though the big shop doors were constantly being opened and closed when temps outside were below zero. They were oil-fired and used much less fuel overall, then the previous forced-hot-air system we had.
