I’d agree security needs more attention when developing protocols and products, and I’d also consider Bluetooth simple. That being said, I know plenty of folks that don’t like the Bluetooth pairing process, especially those without a technical background.
Fast Pair is really convenient, and I’d say it can open the door for a lot of new experiences, but I do wish the developers put more effort into their TARA.
