Bluetooth Controller

I know it's not a huge problem and there's better things to fix other than this, but the connectivity with a wireless controller are just terrible. Is it the controller's fault, Android's fault or ASUS's?

For the whole year of using the ZF6, I had no problem with BT connectivity except for the Philips shaver occasionally, but according to frequent negative user reviews for its app, only Philips can be blamed (the last time two weeks ago I had to turn BT off / on manually and then the shaver connected in its app again). See a list of my devices in use, btw some devices aren't visible in the list because they don't need to be paired, such as all my Chromebooks, where BT is used for automatic unlocking via Smart Lock.
I have BT permanently turned on, but I've been used to restart BT on all my devices for years when device automatically switches Do Not Disturb mode twice a day (in the morning and at midnight) as a prevention of any potential problems. Why? Because of BT problematic nature on Android in general. See my Tasker script.
Tasker script export as Description:
