my r32 does this for two reasons; one to meet and exceed noise restrictions
and the second being to allow back pressure at low RPM's. This prevents
torque loss yet still allows the engine to breathe freely up top. Yes I know
this is my first post and I am comparing apples to oranges but BMW isn't the
only company doing this.
