Would appreciate reading any driving experience with Audi Dynamic Steering (based on a harmonic drive differential in the steering column, not the dynamic setting of Drive Select). Thanks.

To put it in somewhat basic terms, it removes a significant amount of understeer.
In particular, in hard cornering, I get the impression that the natural tendency of a car this big is to understeer, but that the Quattro combined with the dynamic steering pushes (or more aptly pushes AND pulls) the car through the understeer to help it track more true.
To be sure, this car (with Dynamic steering) handles noticeably better in aggressive driving than my prior '09 BMW 750i and my prior Audi A8L (D3) - neither of which had a similar feature.
I recommend the feature. Also, unless you do an extended test drive, it may be difficult to evaluate this feature. Feeling this car in action in repeated cornering and handling situations is when you start to appreciate this technology.
