I received two emails from them, stating this:

"To order a key, you will need to visit your nearest BMW dealership and request it in person. This process requires verification of ownership and identification for security purposes."

So it looks like the reason they didn't require added proof of ownership is that maybe BMW won't let them make keys online anymore.

So, I guess I'll either have to ante up several hundred dollars for a key from a dealership, or do the EWS delete.

I replied to them, asking for an explanation, but probably won't get one.
