I think Goldfinger can get BSV if a mealybug transfers the virus from your Mysore to it. The problem with Mysore is that most of them that you would buy or get from a friend are already infected with BSV, but most or all Goldfinger are uninfected.

I think the only way you could figure out if BSV affects fruit production of your Mysore is to grow several pairs of it and Pisang Ceylon in various places around your yard. If the Pisang Ceylon out produces the Mysore on average, then you have your answer. But I know that neither of us would do that experiment because we don't have the space or enough interest to do it.
