Is BMW backing away from their Remote Control Parking feature?

When BMW launched the new G12 7 Series, G32 6 Series GT, and G30 5 Series, one of the big features they were showing off was the Remote Control Parking via the Display Key. However, none of the new models that have come out since include this functionality. Specifically, the G01 X3, G15 8 Series, G29 Z4, G05 X5, G20 3 Series, and G07 X7 do not have this option available.

Its absence from the X3, Z4, and 3 Series is understandable since those are more entry level products, but it's surprising that they have not included this feature on any of the higher end models that have come out this year. It leads me to wonder if they are moving away from this technology altogether.

Has anyone heard anything about why they aren’t offering this on their newer models? Granted it probably isn’t the most popular feature and is usually seen as kind of gimmicky, but why not at least make it available as an option?
