My guess is that they wanted to send a message to M3 sedan fans that the sedan is still alive and kicking and getting some love too. Of course, it might have no bearing on whether they ultimately decide to give in and produce an F30 M3 later. But, from a marketing POV they want to keep people's dreams alive and interest up, at least until the E90 M3 is gone.
