I think a petition to reinstate ED program is a good idea. At least BMW will get additional data points about its popularity.
From BMW quarterly earning report released on May 6, 2020 (fresh off the press):

"In March, BMW said it expected profits to maybe halve in 2020, as the impact of the coronavirus hits sales, economies and consumer confidence, with the automotive EBIT profit dropping to between 2% and 4%."
"The highest negative impact is expected in the second quarter of 2020".
In the view of 50% reduction in 2020 profits, it's unlikely BMW will reinstate ED program any time soon.
