// How to use MAUI Bluetooth LE permissions

private async Task<bool> CheckBluetoothStatus()
{
	try
	{
		var requestStatus = await new BluetoothPermissions().CheckStatusAsync();
		return requestStatus == PermissionStatus.Granted;
	}
	catch (Exception ex)
	{
		// logger.LogError(ex);
		return false;
	}
}

public async Task<bool> RequestBluetoothAccess()
{
	try
	{
		var requestStatus = await new BluetoothPermissions().RequestAsync();
		return requestStatus == PermissionStatus.Granted;
	}
	catch (Exception ex)
	{
		// logger.LogError(ex);
		return false;
	}
}

Correct me if im wrong but, it appears to me neither Bluetooth nor BluetoothAdmin are runtime permissions, and thus do not need the runtime parameter to be true.
From what i see in the source code, the only use to even include them in this RequiredPermissions override is to let MAUI ensure they are part of the manifest, but marking them as runtime is misleading/confusing.

Also it seems to me that since CheckStatus/Request permissions only returns a single over all PermissionStatus, than adding both the Bluetooth specific as well as Location specific permissions, to the same RequiredPermissions enumeration, will not allow you to differentiate which permissions if any had not been granted, rather just that something wasn't.
So if you need to know which may have been denied, you wont unless they are requested separately.
For after the permission is denied twice, additional request will not be granted, and arguably you might want to know what exactly was denied to help guide the user to allow the permission manually.

Shoutout to @salarcode , this was of amazing help saved many hours of banging my head against a wall
