I've noticed in iOS 15 my bluetooth sometimes turns on spontaneously even if I had previously turned it off IN THE SETTINGS (not temporarily).
Most recently today when updating to iOS 15.1, this occurred when I turned on wifi (in the settings and NOT bluetooth) and later noticed that BT was on.
Any idea why this is happening? Is it a bug or a new "feature"?

For some time now if you have used your iPhone as a hotspot with a device and you come within proximity of the device it will activate the hotspot and Bluetooth. Same if you have any AirPods.
Do you have any Bluetooth devices you are near? Or used Hotspot on your iPhone?
I am near many BT devices (all paired elsewhere) and have hotspot on my phone (also off). But BT was explicitly turned off in settings - it should not spontaneously turn on unless iOS behavior has implemented a bug.
