It was a hack. An actual code change would be submitted via the gerrit and not buganizer.

Yeah except nobody is going to put the effort in to do that because they know it will be ignored.

I tried back in the day.

Not really. There wasn’t a true patch attempt submitted, as far as I can see. There was some helpful info about how commenting out a couple lines could work around the issue, but doing a real engineering evaluation to check spec compliance and make sure it’s all covered in the Bluetooth testing infrastructure is a much bigger task.
