like I know there are wifi nics for pcs that have bluetooth added on as a feature but what if you are perfectly happy with your non-bluetooth-having wifi nic but don't want to gently caress with dongles to get bluetooth what then? why is there no such thing as a dedicated bluetooth card lol

yes bluetooth could definitely take advantage of the bandwidth offered by the pci-express bus

PCs are faraday cages, so placing a low powered Bluetooth radio inside of one is not usually a great idea. USB sticks are so cheap to manufacture too.

2.4ghz wifi and Bluetooth that's also 2.4ghz with similar transceiver, antenna design and what not including the same controller/modem chip so why not add few more cents to sell it together for a lot more? by selling a Bluetooth only card you are missing out a large market even though you've already spent like 99 percent of cost for it
