If you consider the main competitors.... Mercedes and Audi.... BMW is still quite a bit better of a driver's car in comparison. The industry in general has been slowly moving away from enthusiast focused cars for a loooong time. Yes you have lower volume exceptions (Porsche, Alfa, Cadillac BW) which are arguably better drivers cars, but BMW is a mass market luxury manufacturer and sells the most cars in their segment - so their main focus is to appeal to the masses, not us tiny minority of enthusiasts.

All that being said, they still offer a 500hp manual transmission beast of a car that loves to dance.... so I'm not complaining. If you don't want a car that changes lanes based on your eye movement, then don't buy it or just disable the feature.
