The PMIC regulator shouldn't be configured with the entire range of voltages
it can generate, but with a range of voltages that is suitable for all its
consumers.
In other words if BT requires a minimum voltage of 3.3V the minimum voltage
of the regulator should be at least 3.3V.

What if another device switches the regulator on before BT?
Again, what you describe is a misconfiguration of the regulator and should
be fixed at its root, instead of implementing unreliable 'safeguards' in each
and every driver using regulators.
