I have. I had a loaner with a 6 sp. manual trans. for one day while considering various lease options in July 2017 (M340 f30 versus 328d f31).

I think that it has been too long for me to be objective to compare. I put a lot of miles on the M340 loaner- and I remember that it was a lot of fun. But I do not remember it feeling as sharp as the G42 today.

My hunch is that the GXX platform has really evolved over the FXX platform.

No no. Do not confuse an F30 340i M-sport with a 2020+ G20 M340i. Huge difference that you probably just experienced in that G42. I'll be curious if the G42 M240i is as good or better than G20 M340i because other than size and door count, they should be nearly identical.
