I've had one instance of an ACSM unit requiring a dealer replacement under warranty shortly after coding with E-Sys (malfunction error appeared a day after coding and could not be cleared - it would reappear after a day or two). Whether that was coincidental or not we'll never know, but the timing was curious. That is a fairly rare event, and if you're worried about a particular module, you can just opt not to code it.
There is some risk to coding, but I would describe it as very low, and I would not personally be concerned about it.
BTW -
Almaretto can code '18 G01 X3's and can do it remotely as well if you're not in the Los Angeles area. He is one of the few people I would trust to code any BMW without hesitation. He also got NGHB's (no-dazzle high beams) working on my X3, and they work very well.
