Especially if you're using it for shifting or similar. I'd imagine in eDrive the engine RPMs can be a bit chaotic (like if it is turned on at 80MPH or something).

Yes..I was not referring to sport mode. I agree that it makes most sense if you are using it to manually shift your car. But even when not in sport mode, I like to see what my ICE is doing.
The great advantage of a digital display is that it can be customized. BMW has limited greatly the ability to customize the display. If I were trying to hypermile my car, then the display that came with my car would be great; but I don't hypermile and have no interest in doing that. It would be nice if BMW gave me the ability to swap out the right side gauge for a tach but it doesn't.
