I'm not a fan of my xenons popping on/self-leveling/etc., my dash lights dimming/changing color, and my Nav screen dimming/going from white to black background every time I drive under a frakking underpass.
I could adjust the sensitivity on a Lexus I owned; I couldn't on my current 2 Series and a 370z (can't remember about the others; don't think they had auto headlights). IMHO, all cars with this feature should allow for that adjustment within the OS of the car.
(Some may disagree, but I'm pretty sure I'm not 'most dumbest' -- which, by the way, is a double absolute and really bad grammar.)
Most comments here are valid, as a previous poster said. But I do believe the majority of the phenomenon is due to a combo of bright DRLs, daytime gauge backlighting, and decent urban street lighting.

The grammar mistake was intentionally ironical and silly. I was mostly pointing at folks that buy fully loaded automobiles with lots of features that they never learn to use or even know they have.
You fall into a different category, you have a feature set that you don't like and bypass it. I don't think you are the type to drive around in the dark with lights out.
I agree that some BMW features need more user control.
