I've read you can't opt out of the authentication...did I miss something where I needed to sign up for it? Or should this be automatic? Still no idea why it went directly to me.

It should be automatic.
The original listing certainly has the authenticity guarantee seal, so it sure seems like it should have gone to the authenticator. The usual process is when the seller prints the mailing label, the address line has your name, a code, and the authenticator's actual mailing address. So under the standard process, the seller couldn't send it directly to you even if they wanted to.
I'm not seeing anything in the listing that would eliminate the AG process, so the only thing I can surmise is that the eBay algorithms somehow failed when they gave your seller the mailing address for shipping.
