I’m sure people know this but the heated steering wheel on the MX has seams so I’m not sure about the relevance of seams or not on an M3 wrt heating
This is true. There is certainly no technical issue in combining heating with seams on the covering. I think it's more a case of the odds of there being 2 separate steering wheel updates close together i.e. stitching on one update and then heating on another.
In any case, I have the new seamless wheel and no sign of any heating at this moment. So only chance of heating is if it hasn't yet been implemented in software, which is quite possible. Do I really care? Well my MX has a heated wheel and I do use it in winter, but not a big deal with a pre-heated cabin. I switch it off as soon as I'm driving as it gets too hot for my liking. The Model 3 blows warm air literally straight through the steering wheel, so even less of an issue.
