Is this a flaw/weakness in the Bluetooth spec, or is one of these products misbehaving in a way that means it should have its Bluetooth qualification revoked?

It's pretty suspicious that people can't reproduce the problem with other products; I kind of wonder if Logitech have been upping the power on their devices to overcome 2.4 Ghz congestion.

Bluetooth is designed for devices backing off in response to congestion for scalability, not devices trying to shout louder than other devices.

I suspect it's physics, airpods don't have a high power transmitter and can't handle the congestion of another closer (closer to computer and maybe higher powered) bluetooth device using the same band.
