I have Ohlins R&T, and the rebound/compression are one adjustment only (like the MPS). Guys - keep me honest if the MPS has separate dials for comp/rebound
If you're not going to the racetrack, you can fine tune for your perfect street ride/handling. If you are tracking your car - you can tune for your ideal street set-up and then tune for the racetrack after experimenting. Even track-to-track if you have the time/energy.
BMW has engineered compromise into the units to provide warranty and a more general appeal, but only the drawings/specs (which we will never get) will tell the story.
Not sure you can go wrong with either MPS or V3, but I went with Ohlins due to their reputation, quality, and excellent tech support to ensure I got the units best for my needs (i went with R&T)

Yes, the MPS has separate dials for compression and rebound.
