There isn't the bandwidth in broadcast to do fullframe 1080 3d, it require twice the bandwidth of normal HD. That's why it outputs at half res.
Again, the TV can scale and do what it likes with the frames, that the stb is outputting half res doesn't mean the TV has to display it, it can scale it up and display the frames alternately.
This is the entire point of the HDMI 3d spec, it's entirely platform agnostic. It just gives the capability to send 2 frames, how those frames are processed and displayed is entirely down to the display device.
