Agree, but my point is, and you can see clearly in the pictures, with the carbonbrake setup for M3/M4 they use the big golden calliper like with M5. If you we re to choose for steelbrake setup, you get blue M-performance calliper. Smaller different shaped calliper.
If we take a look at the example of the M5/M6, you get the same big calliper for either steel or carbonbrake setup. Same shape, different color...
