I could live with redundancy. HVAC can be controlled via both panel and IDrive in IDrive 7 now I believe. Updates don’t have to be OTA. I wouldn’t mind the update occurring during a service appointment. I am sure we can come up with a million obstacle and what I suggest will probably never happen. I think the reason has more to do with BMW wanting to sell cars with the newest IDrive as opposed to designing a a system that can be updated with each version.
