The explosive nature of the the way the power came on line made it difficult to accurately dial the back-end out. The turbo-lag, as minimal as it was, still meant that, when cornering, you still had to push the accelerator down before you actually needed the power and guess how much you needed.
I definitely understand your perspective. If I had a turbo car for a bunch of years I'd definitely be interested in what the E92 M had to offer.
