I've had a pesky intermittent battery drain that is getting worse [common] than before.

It's more common when I arm the car than not. I'm told these e70's are known for the welcome lights going bad and giving me the drain I'm experiencing...

I shut the welcome lights off in settings but the still come on. I accidentally found which one is faulty as when the car was off, the passenger side front door handle was hot to the touch...

I'm confused by the fact that I shut off the welcome lights in the settings but they still come on at night which might be related to the cause of this symptom...

Other than pulling the door panel? and getting in there and disconnecting the light,is there a fuse you can pull?
TIA!

Do you have comfort access? If the door handle is warm/hot to the touch it's more than likely the comfort access handle causing the issue as it's very common and you'll need to unplug that handle or replace it as there is an internal short causing the issue. Do a search here and you'll find tons of threads on it.
