Or are the master cylinders, weights and brake bias' of all the car's the Alcon calipers are found on exactly the same?

For this reason alone, how are they any better than using the Brembo's from a Porsche with mounting brackets and disc's to match?

Fair enough if someone can give a proper technical explanation as to how they are 'designed' specifically for the M3 or CSL, but so far these 'proper BBK's' are just another big calliper and a means of bolting it to the M3 hub?
