I must say reading this through, seems there is still total confusion on what we get with each option.

In the UK, 2TB does not include Dynamic Drive, NO adjustable chassis components, (stabilisers/roll bars).

There is no chassis adjustment, with the sport setting, (even though it shows in the menu of iDrive), although the steering does tighten and make the car feel more sure footed.

We can have VDC (223) as a stand alone option on some lower models, with DDC controller, and Adaptive Drive (2VA) on others, like the 535i (VDC + Dynamic Drive).

We had BMW UK involved in the discussion and I had access to a document from BMW Marketing, which clearly sets out the option setups. Dynamic Drive (adjustable stabilisers/roll bars) ONLY come with option 2VA, definitely not included with any other package in the UK.

BTW, the option costs reflect the structure of fitment.
