What you described is how most other vehicles work. All of your settings are saved to your remote. When that remote is used, your settings are used.
BMWs do all of that, but there's another layer. If you change something (move the seat forward, for example), the next time you use that remote, the seat will move to the forward position you moved it to, even if you don't save that new position to memory. Most other vehicles would move the seat to the memory position.
This is helpful if someone is borrowing you car. They can set the seat and mirrors where they like and not have to use the memory to save their settings between stops.
