BMW builds some of the most refined and sporty diesels.
Obviously, you have no idea what are you talking about.
Low fuel consumption, A LOT more mileage per liter of fuel, A LOT of Torque, Longevity, are just few attributes of a diesel. In many ways, way superior to gas.
Obviously you never owned one. You should try it, you might be surprised...
Obviously? : I had a 330d for 3 years and other make diesels/petrols before that, so I'm not a virgin.

All diesels sound harsh, it's a fact of life.

My view is I'd rather have a petrol and pay more for fuel, stop more often to fill up but get a nicer-sounding, higher-revving engine than something that has a lot of low-end shove and sounds shit.
