I not a BMW tech , nor a certified advisor - but i think it's pretty much assumed that you can go with the same spec oil considering we basically have the same spec car , built at the same plant. As far as i'm concerned - going for 0w-30 is an improvement on all levels except fuel efficiency - but better fuel efficiency kind of translates to greater engine internals wear.

I agree, I was trying to make sure that if I use 0w30 they’re not going to be like: oh your engine failed prematurely? That’s because you didn’t go with what the manual says or some bs like that.”
What I’m gonna do is use 0w20 in winter and 0-30 in summer
