I think options should be open to other markets. Do I understand the decision to not do so?

Yes I do. Sales of the Touring were up against two vehicles if you will The X1 and the X3. Both outsold the Touring. Even so did the 3er GT.
Now there is the X1,X2,X3 and X4 to occupy this area of the market because their segment dominates the market. This is not likely to change but we have started to see similar patterns in other markets as well as the complete collapse of segments to SUVs.
