Again, Adaptives do not have to be coded anywhere in world. HBA does.

For the record, the Adaptive LEDs from BMW are not even rated Good.....only acceptable on the 3 series platform. The non-Adaptive and halogen are both rated poor - and the Halogen actually looks better in the tests than the non-Adaptive LEDs.
Do you have a link to this report? I'd like to see which cars headlights gets a good rating.
On iihs webpage

IIHS ratings show that visibility provided by headlights varies widely.

The Institute released its first headlight ratings in 2016. Out of more than 80 headlight systems available on the 31 model year 2016 midsize cars that were evaluated, only one system received a good rating.

As of March 2019, 14 percent of headlight systems tested on model year 2019 vehicles received a good rating. More than half were rated marginal or poor because of inadequate visibility, excessive glare from low beams for oncoming drivers, or both.
