I mean, fair enough. But all of these are highly local (and most require user interaction), meaning they're less of a privacy concern and more of a security concern for high-value targets. Localized phishing, mostly. Plus you can guard against them by turning off bluetooth.
Worth knowing about if you're somebody important, or manage security for someone who is, but pretty far from "Everyone Knows What Happens on Your iPhone".
