After few "try this and watch for smoke ..."
Setting "to" parameter to zero / "0" makes the Bluez function return correct result in unspecified time.
Setting the "to" parameter to "lower then best guessed" value in mS - the function will return "-1" - a customary error value.
Same as thermos bottle will keep hot contents (coffee?) hot and cold contents (beer ?) cold -
BUT how does it know to keep hot hot and cold cold?

It doesn't; it just slows the rate of change to the state of equilibrium with its environment.

Stop making icons "better" and adding tabs nobody uses to the file manager, and concentrate on getting things organised properly.
It's been eight years since Win 10 came out, and even in the latest, most up-to-date version if Win11 we still have to remember which of two totally different settings programs we need to use to do things.
For example, "Settings" has a "Power" area - but the "power button" on a keyboard action is only available via "Control Panel". Trying to search settings for "Power" won't show control panel items which is the only clue we get that it might be the wrong app - or it might be called the "sleep button" instead. Nope? Ok, maybe the "moon button"? No? Where is control panel ... ? Ah, there it is.
You've fannied about reducing the taskbar usability, but you ignore the bits that actually matter - integration and user focus. Please, pull your finger out soon ...

Just noting there are alternative file manager programs.

True, until Microsoft comes up with "their" version and makes the other people go away.
I paid for a useful multi desktop manager, then MS got their finger out of their "nose" lol - and implemented something that did not violate any trademarks but it was enough to put the other company off. I guess if it's opensource, etc....

I think it reflects that they have "too many employees".
(I remember back when thinking it was time to move on when I was being sent to ask users "how things were going" when I was in a department where there was little or no actual development.)

I think it comes down to the quality of employees. Anytime I see feedback on their support forums it starts with "hi, I am a 3rd party mvp, and I am here to help. We are very sorry you are having issues, blah blah blah."
I think it's a failed auto response. Completely useless.
Hi, Outlook won't let me "...." whatever.
Answer: have you tried to reboot? Have you updated your drivers? (as if drivers would have ANY impact on outlook).
Hell, I guess it boots and mostly works.

G'day Folks,
There are too many fingers to pull out, so this will end up as an impossible task as always for Microsoft to handle.
The whole idea from Microsoft is to keep up the confusion and ploy that make you believe that they have or will bring out a new OS is as old as Timbuctoo whereas all we are getting is a different folder configuration and a new paint job with different graphics on the desktop.
Where now Microsoft has slowly stopped support for anything older than 8.1 which is also destined for the OS dump pile, they are successfully herding everyone to Windows 11 and ensuring that Users are forced to purchase newer Hardware that is capable of handling the newer Win 11 and the next, what maybe win 12 OS yet another different folder configuration and a new paint job with different graphics on the desktop.
Money, Money, Money is what makes the world go round and keeps Microsoft chasing to make profits in the Trillion of Dollars because due to world monetary inflation a million is now petty cash and besides Microsoft needs the extra to pay dividends to shareholders and pay another $500 million bonus to the CEO and another senior executives - Money, Money, Money is what makes the world go round and there is so much that the big boys can buy the whole world 10 times over and they have forgotten that once purchased there is nothing to buy with the other 9 times.
Just a closing note: Been there, Done that since DOS and MS-DOS yet we are still on IBM clones. Think about it βΊ.
Have fun computing and keep covid19 safe.

I have learned the same with this as I have learned with partners, or employers, or other individuals who are under the delusion they have some magical "better than you" decisive judgement.
Their head is in a dark place, and they have no intention of taking it out.
You warn them once.
You warn them twice.
And at some point after, you don't warn them anymore.
If you're good enough to get the subtlety of what I am saying, you can also "predict" what I did after I purchased a new computer 2 years back.
BTW I don't mind tabs. But I don't care enough either.
