CoG. That's probably it. I didn't think of that. That's why you have 21k posts and I have 2k
Indeed

For my use case though, the P button in a BMW auto is barely used.

Well if that was my fun answer here's my real answer.

The world was already burning with a move from DCT to ZF gearbox. The DCT shifter as I'm sure you know is bereft of a P button.

Thus the P button on the new ZF shifters was 'minimised ' to lesser highlight the change. As per my use case above it's also less used so has been kept, just, but is put out of the way.

I actually think that's highly likely.
