I would just like to mention that data acquired by bq27x00 module - which can't live together with bme in kp48 - can be accessed by i2c tools, and shadowjk's script bq27200.sh with i2cget properly pull all needed info. So, probably, all aplications depending on bq27x00 module data, should now switch to i2ctools, and shadowjk's freely available script contain method for getting such data.

Ho ever, I don't know if report about "dangerous" situation, when 2 things access i2c together, apply also for i2ctools. I've found (commented out) parts of shadowjk's bq27200.sh, that stopped bme before getting data - should we enable them now?

If bq27x00 was "dangerous" because accessing i2c at the same time as bme, isn't shadowjk's script dangerous also, while doing the same thing? Or it is different in some way, that doesn't bring "danger"?
