Well, I used to get irritated by that too (got used to it eventually)... When people say that "M-Sport is mostly cosmetic" they actually mean that it is cosmetic
compared to Sport package (not to base car). Sport package already includes top-speed limiter and everything else, so M-Sport is indeed just a cosmetic change
from Sport.
Of course, if you compare M-Sport to
base car, it is not even remotely cosmetic. M-Sport (just like Sport) introduces several significant non-cosmetic changes.
Why some people keep saying that M-Sport is "cosmetic" without explicitly stating that they are comparing it to Sport (as opposed to base car) is not clear to me. Apparently, some people just like to yap away in a forum and don't care whether anyone will understand them correctly.
