Alternate_Diffuse doesn't mean Diffuse is here. It actually is "draw whatever you plug into this". They called it Alternate_Diffuse to help noobs. You're supposed to think you should put your alternatives to ordinary (built-in) diffuse into that channel, such as Clay, Scatter, etc. However, since it actually is the only channel that literally does what I tell it to do (by what I plug in) with no other hanky panky, it is where I put everything.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
