As for ‘recording from IP streamed channels’, are you sure about that? Some systems may describe ‘recording from the cloud’, but it is effectively drawing your requested programme from on demand.
Although you may think that BBC programmes are ‘recordable’ from IP streamed channels, you are effectively accessing those programmes from the BBCi-Player.

Extract from EE’s Customer Email
As you’re watching EE TV in Internet Mode (without an aerial), the way you watch your BBC recordings will change.
From 21st August [2024], your BBC recordings will launch through the BBC iPlayer app. There’s no change to how you’ll record a programme, or where it will be stored.
Put another way, the recordings may oddly still be stored on the box, but your access to record and re-watch related content is going to be limited by iPlayer’s policies. For example, much of iPlayer’s content is only made available for 30 days after broadcast (sometimes longer, sometimes shorter) and downloaded programmes are generally available for the same amount of time. But not everything gets added to iPlayer and content does expire, which will also impact your recordings (i.e. you won’t be able to watch what isn’t available).

The programme is still recorded on the box, it’s "related content" that is different…
And this is only relevant to
"Until now those with ‘Internet Mode’ enabled on the related set-top-box could still record TV content directly to local storage on their Pro Box from the streamed BBC channels, much like you can when watching via a regular aerial connection. "
Not those using
" ‘Broadcast Mode‘ "
You appear to have accidentally overlooked these relevant points which were either side of what you quoted…
