Personally, I am less concerned with the consistency of the brand. I think testing and certifying to the specification takes the brand out of the equation somewhat.

The certification of the specifications would take brand out of the equation. As I interpret your post-- what is on aftermarket product is not certified so it is not a necessarily a match to BMW fluid. For that reason your recommendation is to use BMW Fluid. While most of us have a brand preference from past experience and we may have used that particular fluid with satisfactory results in an X5 tranny, that is not the safest way to go. Did I get that right?
