I have a device that works exactly that way, and it's fine. I don't know what failure mode you have in mind.

I don't find bluetooth headphones, speakers and mice to always reliably and robustly connect. Several times a month the solution is to force a re-pairing. An informal poll amongst friends and colleagues shared the same experiences.

When bluetooth works, it works well. But the failures are very difficult to diagnose and address. Those are what the calls will be about and why they will be lengthy.
