I mean sure, I understand that. But that doesn't mean I have to like it. BR are really well known to anyone dealing with ROVs or AUVs, but that's not exactly the average person. Commercial consumer hardware R&D is mostly a fool's errand these days, since if it's something that's worth producing and sells there will be clones that work just as well available almost immediately. I'm not sure how say, Adafruit, sells anything at all to be honest, anything they make gets perfectly cloned and sold on Aliexpress for a tenth of the price. I guess going extremely niche and overpriced is one way to work around it.
