I have no doubt the spec is crap, but some implementations are better (read: somewhat less problematic) than others. Which leads me to believe there is some degree of freedom with respect to quality here.

I fully agree with you there. I'm working on some BT stuff, and find it to be lacking, mainly the software stack. The spec looks ok for a wireless interface, the quality of the stacks are all over the place.
