In '99/00, I remember a cartoon on a slide because the lecturer was involved in the BT spec. It took a while, but he was right that it would be ubiquitous.

I do have issues with BT compatibility between some devices with stuttering sound. For example, I have Edifier speakers that don't work properly with Apple devices.

Another issue is audio/video latency. aptX Low Latency isn't widely-supported. Receivers, TVs, computers, and any display device chain muxes or demuxes A/V should support an A/V calibration device discoverable by WiFi and BT containing a microphone and light sensor for automatic synchronization.

Pairing is a PITA. The behaviors of connecting, selecting, forcing, and moving devices are inconsistent and problematic. AirPods are terrible because they repeatedly connect when not wanted.
