My SO's 2.4L TLX feels right in middle-mode, and it's full sport mode is sort of a joke.

My M2C's Sport+ mapping feels correct for the engine. Comfort is for parking lots and driveways, and Sport is just there so I don't annoy my SO when we're out shopping.
Yeah, I don't really understand the point of multiple throttle maps, other than an Eco setting. They should be linear to be predictable and maximize the "resolution" of the pedal. If you want to go faster, you can just press down more.

My Z4M's Sport setting was way too touchy at the top, but nothing near as bad as my Mazda 3. That throttle is insane, I am pretty sure something like 40% pedal travel is WOT.

With that said, I have no idea what is the most linear one for the M2C. It might be Sport+. In the OG M2 I drove, Sport+ was way too much.

It reminds me of mouse sensitivity. Some people like crazy high sensitivity... but if you look at "pro" gamers, they typically use low sensitivity to ensure they still have fine control.
