There are a couple of things at play with regards to automaker recommendations.
No 1:. They want the owner to take time to become familiar with the vehicle and how it drives.
No 2: Legal liability - This should be obvious. They won't recommend a break in process which could injure the driver.
No 3: Warranty - Same as number 2 above but they don't want new owners damaging the vehicle.
No 4 -. For decades the manufacturing process has resulted in tighter tolerances and is much cleaner (less residues left behind).
I've owned a handful of BMWs over my lifetime and the ones which I didn't break-in always burned oil (Apparently my M54 was always going to burn oil due to a design issue).
My two cents.
