It was not only because of the name. I think a big part of the turn around was the non compliance by the passengers. They were asked to turn off all Bluetooth devices but did not.

The device was probably in checked baggage. Or in an overhead compartment where the owner would have been seen and socially ostracized for removing it.
It was a fitness wristband. The kid probably didn't even know it used Bluetooth.
