Well, the pattern in the past is that this tends to be the way such things

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.
