I'd be curious if you find this to be true, as this functionality is critical for me to ever consider the automatic. From the M235 user's manual:

Sport automatic transmission: prevent
automatic upshifting in M/S manual
mode

For vehicles with Sport automatic transmis‐
sions, automatic shift operations are not per‐
formed, at maximum engine speed for exam‐
ple, if one of the following conditions is met:
▷ DSC deactivated.
▷ TRACTION activated.
▷ SPORT+ activated.
In addition, the kickdown is deactivated.
