Why won't my home pod show up on my bluetooth list?

My home pod won't show up in my bluetooth list of devices - how can I get it on the list?

Bluetooth is used during setup, and perhaps for handoff, but HomePod uses the AirPlay 2 protocol over Wi-Fi for audio playback. It isn't meant to show as a connectable Bluetooth device.
