Again, there's no fault in your logic, BUT... I have a feeling that BMW thought: "If the tire blows or fails to perform up to certain standards when they drive fast/hard for whatever reason (and our vehicle is capable of doing that, i.e. on a German autobahn) on public roads, we're going to have a shit-storm - very bad publicity and probably some law suits as well. If they crash in the woods or during winter @ 50 km/h... well, they should've bought off-road/winter tires/snow chains then!"
