WiFi is an example of an almost everything interface that mostly works, though. But it's a different approach because it leaves application interfaces variable, so less big design up front. Its main functionality gap is, of course, low power and very low cost hardware.
That said, I still don't understand why Bluetooth is still flaky after over 20 years of opportunity to improve it.
