Yes, of course less slop in suspension is better but most of us have to compromise. I think BMW engineered a very livable compromise for dual duty cars. You see in other threads, I've wrongly assumed that the rear suspension design of an E9X M3 acts in a similar manner to the E46 (non-M and M) which was pretty much the same as the E36. I know my E46 very well so I can and do maintain input on how the car is setup...just not relying on someone's opinion. I know all of us know the what, what the spec should be. I think all of us would be better served if we knew why the spec is what it is...I surely don't right now.
In the end I know that being intimately familiar with most of the details on my E46 has made me a better driver.
