It makes you wonder what designs were rejected. Some of the journos say that it makes sense and looks aggressive IRL. I hope that's the case.
To the point about the CSL Homage, maybe they are going to work towards that design. I think the homage grille and lights look great, and if they end up tweaking it closer to that with updates that would be awesome.
Another factor maybe their electric cars (i4 concept), they had painted closed off grilles but similar outlines. A step change for these cars was probably needed to work towards electric. If (big if) the next m3/m4 is electric they might just fill in the opening". Of course just thoughts in my head.

Edit: just saw VetteGuy's comment about the i4 sorry about the repeat.
