Enormous spec crafted by committee. It's anything and everything to everyone, which means implementing the entire thing is a _serious_ undertaking. Add to that it's the kind of feature that's a cost center--people expect wireless stuff like headphones, etc. to just work and be there, it's not a glitzy feature that sells products. So there's zero incentive to innovate or spend time and money making it better. Hardware makers want cheaper chips, skimping on the implementation and software side helps make that happen.
