Well, the pattern in the past is that this tends to be the way such things
end up being rolled out. Once it is, you're next problem is to try and beat
down the producers up the chain who level/band compress music into pap.

Indeed much recorded music is processed as you describe. Quite a lot
now isn't, see debates about "loudness wars" etc. If I as a listener
have a problem with that sort of thing well I avoid as far as I can
listening to their output. As a consumer I'll judge what I hear, be it
streams, cds or lps by what it sounds like to me. If I don't like ir I
won't pay for it, if its a physical medium like lp or cd I'll send it back.
All I want the BBC to do is make the option available to me with the
content I want. That content is not "classical" music but I understand
why they would start this experiment with that music, I'll listen when
they do that maybe I'll improve my musical education at the same time.
