Since 1988 I've managed to own four BMWs, none of which have had an extra M badge somewhere on the body. I've somehow managed to keep my self esteem. Maybe

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
