BMW took it to the next level by placing the M340i type cars in the M section of the website... that was never the case before... then they added the limited slip diffs and at this point no one knows what's what.

AMG has been doing this for many years. If C/GLC 43 are AMG, any 6+ cylinder BMW can be an M.

Funny you mention it BMW was actually ahead of the game when it came to the mid-tier performance badging. The first M-Performance vehicle (M235i) was unveiled in late 2013, MB soon followed with the C43 in early 2016. The 3er was just late to adopt the new nomenclature.
