As its name conveniently suggests, Bluetooth is much more painful. Scientists wrestled with the technology during its inception, sacrificing life and limb. As long as they follower manufacturer recommendations and don’t risk conditions that can lead to RF burns, a.k.a. the dreaded Blue-bite, they should be just fine using Bluetooth.
Bluetooth is, not a joke, named after King Harald Bluetooth. He was a viking, who united many Norse tribes, you know with all the pillaging they are known for.

Oh wow you’re serious
If something is invented as a direct replacement it should be known as Forkbeard for Harald’s son, Sweyn Forkbeard
