Bluetooth on a phone can be disabled.

I only turn on bluetooth when it is needed.

Wired headsets and wired keyboards will work with some of today's phones.

That doesn't sound like a great user experience. "I have this TV that I want to use as a monitor, but I have to turn of a feature on my unrelated device which I want to use with a headset, keyboard, etc". I would rather buy a dumb TV that didn't require me to lose phone features.

It wasn't my phone trying to connect to the TV.
