Why this is a false positive

The assistant was inspecting a captured Bluetooth Low Energy handshake from a user-owned consumer device (a remote-control toy) to identify legitimate connect/activation command bytes for interoperability debugging — routine reverse-engineering of one's own hardware, not an attack against third-party systems. The block also appears to have fired on a frustrated exclamation the user directed at the assistant mid-session (no person or system was threatened), which halted the entire session rather than just flagging that one message; treating BLE protocol analysis of owned hardware plus incidental venting as a cybersecurity risk is a false positive that stops legitimate, in-scope debugging work.
