The error message is tell you exactly what the problem is, the exporter does not have full or any Bspline/Bcurve support yet. The solution is for one of you or someone else to write that code.
I might actually try to pull this off.
Do you have any resources that I can use.
I'm talking especially about documentation regarding exporters for Freecad and best dxf documentation.

Also what is BCurve referring to ? Is it Bezier Curves ?

The DXF import and export preferences are not used by TechDraw_ExportPageDXF.

OK looks like legacy exporter worked for me. What are the downsides ?

Are you sure you are exporting a TechDraw page?

I'm not exporting TechDraw but simply 2DView, but it is enough for me. It's for laser cut.
