It's possible that the tapping won't do anything bad that will affect the valvetrain, but it's just unacceptable for a $40k car.

I agree, it certainly is unacceptable for the price paid and its a shame that the SIB that is available doesn't fix the issue.
If your SA and/or tech hear(s) the ticking noise, they will talk to BMW NA to open up a PUMA case. If they do this, be prepared to be without your car for about a week or two. When I dropped my car off, I went in at 7:30 AM so I can get a BMW loaner. If I had scheduled for a later appointment, they would have given me a blue PT Cruiser from Enterprise, lol.
