On dual mode devices, there is a specific procedure (defined by the Core spec) for discovery, called "interleaved discovery" where BR/EDR and LE discovery procedures are alternated at specific times. It cannot just do BR/EDR or LE, unless we want to "fake" a single mode adapter. In summary, if the adapter is to work as a compliant dual mode device, it shall use the interleaved discovery procedure. BR/EDR only or LE only discovery would only be acceptable for single mode adapters. We could as well have configuration options to "simulate" single mode on dual mode adapters.
