Bluetooth and Wifi add to cost, size, and power consumption and are actually not needed for many applications, including when a wireless link is needed (for decent range and battery-powered devices there are better options if your device is mostly for remote control/sensing).

So I think it's actually good to strip these out. There can be added as external modules or you can choose a board better suited for the job at hand.
