Kinda goes back around to the original point. Seems like an elegant solution to the airflow question instead of making the front of the car look like an open mouthed bass. And again, if the engine needed that much cooling/airflow, they would not have used a design the can close and open. It would just be open.
On G20 3 series, about 2/3 of the grille is dynamic and will open as needed. The top 1/3 is always closed and cannot open proving that even G20's front grilles are already larger than necessary for cooling, proper aerodynamics (too much opening increases drag) etc.
