3. My wife will be way more likely to drive the M2 DCT. In nearly 3 years she’s never driven the GT4. Now some may suggest this is a good thing. But convincing her to buy another car that’ll only be driven by me is a stretch .

I do believe you have this backwards. That 6sp getrag is going to be good for 500+ lb ft. I am almost certain the dct is not capable of handling as high of torque ratings. In fact this is why the M5 has a ZF.
Not that it matters because either transmission will be fine with whatever tune you throw at the m2.
