Since you have it working on your 2019, isn't it safe to assume hardware changes are not necessary to make this work?

Yes no h/w changes needed to get it working on MY19 G05 in the UK.
I don't think the deliberation was about sw vs hw changes, more the build date for non-code minded buyers. Currently the sw code will only activate TLA for 11/2020 build version cars (unless coded). Prior to the press release it seemed that only those owners with a build version of 11/2020 would get it.
The press release suggests that ALL MY21 G05 will get it, including build version 07/2020-10/2020, however that remains to be seen.
For it to work BMW will need to change the coding so that the TLA activates for build version 07/2020 and later, and this can only be done by an i-step upgrade. Presumably 11/2020.x.
Once the psdzdata is out for 11/2020.x I'll be able to tell for sure what their intentions are.
