So do you suggest we keep Broadcaster/Observer as separate settings
(which actually we prefer, given that we have been working on
supporting those modes for BR/EDR only adapters, by using EIR for
broadcasting data allowed on EIR, such as Manufacturer Specific Data,
and parsing them from Device Found mgmt event when on Observer mode),
and keep "Set Low Energy" setting just for Central/Peripheral modes?
