What I am saying is while Apple devices do use bluetooth for many things, there is no need to directly connect or pair them for this. Bluetooth is used as necessary when the devices are nearby to each other. Direct connection is not required nor possible except for Personal Hostpot.
Again, what are you trying to accomplish by connecting them?
AirPlay uses Wi-Fi not bluetooth.
As long as the Apple TV box and your Apple devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, they can talk to each other.

Correct. You cannot directly connect a Mac to an iPhone over bluetooth. What are you trying to accomplish?
The only feature that requires a direct connection over bluetooth and will allow it, is Personal Hotspot.
All other features that require bluetooth between a Mac and an iPhone do not require a direct connection, just that bluetooth be turned on, on both devices.
What you are saying is that there is a native connection between Apple devices that obviates the need for Bluetooth. Something I neglected to consider.
Is it the same with the connection betw my AppleTV box and my other Apple devices? I can’t connect my other devices to it via AirPlay.
