Please don’t think of me as an expert, because the sum of my knowledge comes from browsing Wikipedia articles. But the summary of the issue is that Bluetooth gets all its energy efficiency and robustness by constantly scanning the spectrum it is to live in, and hopping around extremely fast to different slices of channels, essentially taking advantage of the tiny “gaps” in other signaling protocols that share the same free spectrum. In other words it operates on sloppy seconds/scraps like a vulture, which means it’s timing is very loose and cannot provide any guarantees. But it’s very low power as a result because it almost never has to shout over anyone else.
