Why have a 1 and 2 series 4 door?

There is no hard and fast rule, but generally Speaking:-
Saloon, Tourer, GT, LWB = Odd
Coupe, Convertible, Gran Coupe = Even
Or, more broadly, the more practical variants are Odd, the more stylish variants are Even.
Where it falls down, is BMW's decision to call the Active Tourer a 2 Series. Other than positioning it against the B-Klasse, I really don't understand why they did this.
A 4 door 1 series will be more practical (probably only from a rear passenger and luggage capacity point of view), whilst the 4 door 2 series (Gran Coupe), will be sleeker, more 'dynamic' and more stylish.
