You are talking about US speccars.
These are not US spec cars.

Outside the US you can choose chrome with MSport on many models including F10.
Just like we can put the M Sport steering wheel on any model.

G30 M Sport in the USA will probably only get the shadowline trim as before

Some people like it.
People are different and have different tastes. (Both for fillet and chrome)
