This isn't about right and wrong, its about tradeoffs.
Its really this simple, when a car shifts there is energy stored in the moving parts of the engine and flywheel. That HAS TO GO SOMEWHERE.
BMW chose to use it for acceleration at the expense of smoothness.
Audi chose to smooth the transition at the expense of wasting some stored energy.
It really is that damn simple. I am sorry you are too dense to get it but I am tired of trying to explain this to you.
