The only M-car with a multi-piston rear caliper was the F8x, which braked like crap just like its single-piston rear caliper predecessors.
The G8x won't go down in history for its braking (the grille steals the show), but the overall braking performance is a step up from its predecessor, and that's good enough for me. Too bad about the aesthetics of that tiny caliper, but whatever.
….and therein lies the rub. On forums, people expect a manufacturer not to profit and any profit the manufacturer experiences seems to rub some the wrong way. They should never buy a Porsche then. That company's profits are off the charts.

I think you're also spot-on with reference to your other point in bold. We lost nothing.
